Here it is, my quilt I made for the 4th of July. Well actually just the top. I just finished it today. I used patriotic fabric from my stash. Using the strip twist pattern from Bonnies, Quitltville website. This is a fun quilt to make and goes togeather very quickly. One change I made was cutting the square at 8 inches instead of 8.5. This cut change made a difference on how well the quilt went togeather.
I must get busy and start painting. DH and I are very busy redoing the kitchen. We are painting the cabinets and putting new counter top down, new sink and facet. I am very excited and think it will turn out well.
Happy 4th to all.

So beautiful!!!!! Happy independece day :))))
Very nice - love those strong borders - they just finish it off
Just Beautiful!
Love your patriotic quilt!! I'm using that pattern with Christmas fabrics, but now I'd like one in red , white, and blue.
I hadn't given any thought to doing that Strip Twist as a "sort of planned" quilt, but it sure does look great. Might just have to think about that for some of my "liberty" fabrics..*VBS*
And then like Karen said, maybe a christmas one..I sure did like making the pineapple blossom last year from Christmas scraps!!
I never thought to try this pattern in 2 color ways - great variation!
Cheers!
