Right after Memorial Day, is my second favorite holiday, the Fourth of July! I have to admit I am a sucker for everything Patriotic. It also got me thinking. Why don't I have a patriotic quilt to go with this great holiday? Seems silly being a quilter and all.
After this epiphany of wisdom, I started pulling a variety of red, white, and blues to use for the top. I have made this JULY STAR BLOCK many other times by Cluck Cluck Sew. I am also going to incorporate some FIREWORKS blocks by Thimble Blossoms, whats the fourth without fireworks?
So far I have a dream, some fabric, and a plan. I should be good to go now! Off to the cutting mat I go.

Love the fabric you pulled! Can't wait to see the quilt top. :-)
ReplyDeleteYay for 4th of July quilts - they can be so fun! Your pull of fabrics looks great. :)
ReplyDeleteThat's so funny...I just pulled my 4th of July fabrics last night too!!! Love your choices, and Fireworks is going to be so cute. I think I'm going to do the Summer Sparkle quilt with Fresh Lemon Quilts. Can't wait to see yours:)
ReplyDeleteEek! I just checked out the other two quilts. This is going to be such a cute red, white, and blue Fourth of July quilt!
ReplyDeleteYummy fabric stacks! Can't wait to see what you make for yourself!
ReplyDeleteI have ALWAYS wanted a 4th of July quilt too! Not sure why. I just love everything patriotic I guess, and a quilt just seems to be a must. It is on my bucket list for sure. I am off to check out your links now, but looking at your fabric choices, it will be a stun!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your project. Not much time left. I love firework and enjoyed 4th of July in D.C. once. Big thing! :-)
ReplyDeleteLovely pull of fabrics, Chelsea. This is going to look fabulous!
