happy July 4th!

Favorite holiday.  It even beats-out Christmas.  OK, I take that back.  But it does run a very close second! My local quilt shop sold this pattern for a measly $3.  Now who could pass that up??  Because I saw and purchased the pattern on July 3rd, I am certainly not ready to pack up the pillow yet.  I think it's going to stay on the couch through the summer.  It sits below this plaque...

I ♥ America.
