My grandmother and I occasionally help with some sewing with a local quilt group who are working on the Quilts of Valor project for veterans.
I was given 8 stars before and had to make 12 more to go with them to put them together. I put borders on them and put them together for the group.
Now, my grandmother and I are working on another pattern with the red, white, blue theme for another quilt.
I had lots of cutting done, My cutting table was a mess with all kinds of piles. I am amazed that I even knew which pile went together.
I like quiet days in my sewing room, with the candle going, the music going and the dog at my feet. I could spend hours like this!
I got all the pieces from the piles in the right spots and was amazed with myself that I never had to take any pieces out and re sew.
I got my 6 done and already had 2 done from another time.
Gram also had made some so I took all my stars to her house and we laid them all together.
They do look great together! We still have 8 more to make to put them together and finish this quilt top.
