A patriotic finish

just in time for fall. 

This pattern, Whirl-A-Jig an Iowa Star Design, was offered by Connecting Threads as a kit last summer using their American Celebration fabrics.


It combines two of my favorite elements....pinwheels and squares that from a diagonal design.   Being in patriotic fabrics was a bonus.



The backing fabric from the same line was just right. 


The thing I usually like about Connecting Threads fabrics...besides the price...is that they have a little more body so are very easy to handle and piece. 

I have several fall projects I hope to get at soon.  First I have my regular block of the months to work up and maybe a project in limbo to pull out.  We'll see. 

Happy stitching.
