Annie's other project.....

Here is what Annie has been working on....her beautiful Patriotic Quilt!  It's been in the works for a couple of years.  There are so many elements to it, so many people who have blessed her with ideas and patterns and fabric.  Now it is basted and she started on the quilting this past weekend.

These are taken at our basting party a few weeks ago!

Getting it stretched on the frame.

Jeannie, applique artist extraordinaire, who helped design some of the elements.

Those are presidential portraits in the corners, liberty bells at the top,

Independence Hall and the Mayflower under the wreath

that houses "We the People...." from the Constitution.

"We hold these truths to be self evident......"

from the Declaration of Independence

runs around the sides and top of the quilt.

It is surely destined to be an heirloom.

Annie and Jeannie, long-time friends.

Spectacular, Annie!
