Thank you!!!!

I posted about this a while back but for those who did not read my blog at that time a little reminder………

“I found a new blog I just love called “Sew Many Ways". As I was reading her blog, my eye caught a beautiful set of Americana projects. As I started to read, I found out she was giving them away!! Yes, to the first two people who asked! I said I loved them and they showed up at my home. I am the gal that likes to hand quilt and let others do the piecing, she is the gal that likes to do piecing and not quilt. A match made in Heaven. I know exactly what I am going to do with all three pieces. The bigger one will be a perfect place-mat for my butcher block counter. The one with the star in the middle will be a pot holder I will never use. Every year on the 4th of July, we take a picture because it is my favorite Holiday; the third piece holds a picture!! Therefore, that will be a wall hanging. Thank you so much Karen, I just love them and your kindness."



Well, I got one done!! The place-mat, just in time for the Forth of July.


Thank you again Karen!

I love them!!
