American Patchwork Update 3

A quick switch from Halloween and back to the Fourth of July. I was on a roll recently and finished the stars and blue field of the American Patchwork. Some of the edges are uneven due to way it will be finished - a surprise for later (just not sure how much later)!






Now I am not sure if I will do all the white stripes then all the red stripes, or each block as it arrives in the book and placed as charted (which will mean scattered all over - kind of hard to explain) or just work from the top down. Decisions, decisions.

Happy Saturday Everyone!!!

  2. Hello from a fellow Coloradan...Coloradian...? (i`m from Canada, so the second one tickles my fancy). I love this!! I have a real 'thing' for red white n blue. I would do the white first...if you do dark (or red) colours first, the white tends to pick up colour as it rubs against the other stitches. Just a thought...
