It has come to my quilty attention
that I have never made a bed size red, white and blue quilt.
How is this possible?
I love these colors.
Some of these fabrics I pulled for a quilt a ew years back that never was sewn.
I am going to be adding and subtracting but this is a good start for the upcoming

Summer Memories by Susan Ache @ FQS
I was intrigued.
Then I saw this announcement and was even more intrigued ...
Summer Memories Quilt Along @ Fat Quarter Shop
This is Not-A-Free-Quilt-Along

The book is well written and it has six quilts and 10 cross stitch patterns
and all of them are wonderful!
I think the flag quilt is the best flag quilt pattern that I have seen.

To see all of the quilts, watch the following video preview ...

I have all the fabrics I need in my stash.
I need more medium to light blue fabrics and a border fabric
and I know I have just what I need in my fabric closet.

Looks like you have a good plan for all those lovely fabrics Pat. It will be good to get back into your sewing space. Have a great day.
You have found a wonderful pattern for those lovely prints. Enjoy! ;^)
The fabrics for both quilts are very pretty. But what about Irish Chain? I miss that quilt, happy stitching!
I love Susan Ache and have featured her a couple times on the blog. How nice to showcase her talents like this. Just love that new quilt idea and what a fabulous book that is. I am so tempted...
