My best friend's birthday is in a few days and I almost have her gift ready.
 |
| As I quilted the wavy pattern back and forth, I thought of the ocean and then patriotic lyrics and tunes started going through my mind and I thought "From Sea to Shining Sea" might be a good name for the quilt. It still needs binding. Did you notice that the inside stars are also double pinwheels and then I added flying geese to make Big stars? So each block is a double pinwheel, double star block. |

| I'm also making a quilt for her new grandson. |
 |
| His dad and grandpa are fishermen in Alaska and I had a Charm pack called "Catch of the Day" and made up this pattern with some stars and a few 9 patches. I'm going to add some big borders so it'll be nice sized. |
The thing that's holding me up is packing to move to my new house.

After 33 years I have way too much stuff! Here's my new kitchen!
