Welcome back - I hope you are enjoying the blog hop so far. Monique offered to design a little pattern that utilizes her super cool Fit to be Quarter ruler, a pattern that I could make and also give away on my blog. If you would like Monique's pattern, click this link Download 4thofjulyflag.
I think I may have squealed when I saw how cute this flag is. I dove right into my Prairie Paisley stash to make this flag. Although it's too late for Independence Day, wouldn't it be perfect to show your patriotic pride year round? Or as my friend Julie suggested, they would make cute placemats.
Monique has given me one Fit to be Quarter ruler to give away during this blog hop. I'm going to go one step further and give my winner a kit to make this flag quilt. The same fabrics I used to make mine - backing and binding included. Everything you need except the batting and thread. Please comment before midnight on Friday, July 8 and I will draw a winner on Saturday morning, July 9.
I'd also like to share an easy and delicious summer recipe with you.
Lemony Icebox Pie
- 8 oz cream cheese, room temperature
- 14 oz. can sweetened condensed milk
- ½ cup fresh lemon juice
- 3 tbsp lemon zest
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Graham cracker pie crust
- Combine the cream cheese, condensed milk, lemon juice, lemon zest and vanilla in a large bowl.
Mix with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. Pour into pie crust. Refrigerate overnight.
Also, be sure to stop by Sherri's blog today, Little Bits of This and That to see what she has to share with you.
What an adorable flag! Thanks for your generous giveaway. This pattern is certainly one that could be used for many occasions. And thanks for the recipe! Yum!
ReplyDeleteI really like the reds in your little quilt. Are they from a certain line of fabric or just what you had in your stash? They would make great placemats - if you could make yourself eat off them. I'm too clumsy to be trusted myself.
