AN OLD UFO FINISHED!

While I was finishing American Crossroads for the guild challenge, it dawned on me that I might have time to finish a real old UFO.  I embroidered these blocks over 10 years ago, beginning in March 2009.  The blocks are by Willowberry Designs.



































Here it is finished, binding and all including a label.  I think it will go to my DIL who raises chicken and loves to garden.



Are you ready for Independence Day!  I have a few patriotic things and decided to hang my "E Pluribis Unum" wall hanging outside in my entrance way this year.



Happy 4th of July!!

    but don't know for sure--I have given so many of my quilts away to a Library for them to raise money--
    Love how you did finish yours--congratulations--

  12. Is E-Pluribus a pillow panel from 1990 during Desert Storm? I have it in a UFO … somewhere! Yours looks great!
