At last, it is quilted and bound! I made this "Bull's Eye" quilt at least 10 years ago for a class I was teaching for our quilt guild. Then it spent the next 10 years in the tub of quilts waiting to be quilted. It will probably become a birthday gift for my son.
Thought I would try to get my "Patriotic Strippy Stars" done in time for the 4th of July. If I make 3 or 4 stars everyday...MAYBE it will be done. It is hard to get much quilting done in the summer, the flowers are always calling me to come outside and take care of them!
Hope everyone has a great week, and can find some time to sew!

Wooooo, I love your bulls eye quilt!! I have this book ( by county threads? I think...) and dreamed making this quilt one day. You did wonderful job, love it love it!
Also , so fun to see your Jo project. I'm looking forward to see your progress!
That Bulls Eye quilt is fabulous.
Oh I love your Bull's Eye and your stars are just wonderful!
I made a Bull's Eye many moons ago when they were first popular. In fact, still have more blocks prepped for another quilt. Doesn't look promising since it has been so long! Hee!!
OK.. have to tell you that I'm loving the Jo project!!!
I love patriotic quilts - whenever I see fabrics or patterns in a red/white/blue scheme, I get excited. Can't wait to see how the stars turn out.
I relate with you about the flowers calling - it's real hard to do anything in the house when spring has finally come!
Wow, I just finished my Bulls Eyes quilt in the same colorway as you ! Your quilting inspire me for mine.
