New project, Lone Star

 I’ve always wanted to make a Lone star quilt.  I bought the kit from a place called Plains and pine. When I first read the directions, I thought I don’t understand. But after watching half a dozen videos, I jumped in and gave it a try. It is so easy and so fun.  Since the strips are 2.5” you could use a jelly roll. Fun times!  I just made 2 more big diamonds  after 8 are made I’ll add background triangles to finish

Coming together

 I don’t have all of clue 4 but it’s beginning to look like this. I ran out of the white print so using white solids  need to make 7 more white stars I think..I can’t count!

New project, Winter 2026 QOV QAL

 We (my sister and I) used to do the  QOV quilt alongs by Alycia, so I decided to do her latest.  I’m not as fast as I used to be plus my sewing machine acts like it too has seen better days!  Just finished the first clue, blue stars on a white background,  I had a patriotic fat quarter group so it seemed destined to be.  So now I have 4 projects …quilt my Bonnie quilt; continue working on these quilts..Freida; Lone Star; and the QOV
