Star, Flags and Bunting on a Sunny Saturday!

There's nothing like sunshine to make a day special, unless it's a 4th of July wallhanging! I got a start on the flags and star and will do bunting today.
I'm making this for the front door on the 4th. We'll see how it looks.
I realized when I was pulling fabric for this quilt that I don't have much of just blue fabric. I mean, I have blue fabric (2 and 1/2 shelves of it) but not clear blue. The PKM blue. I've been using aqua for almost 2 years instead of blue.
See--no blues. And this doesn't show the fat quarters in the drawer. Someday I'm going to have a big sale on eBay or something and cull the stash....or not. Funny how really looking at the blues makes me remember the quilts I was going to stitch up with each one of them. Do you think I have a bit of a hoarding issue? Well, I actually consider myself a collector, yeah, that's it...a collector! Have a wonderful day! Cheery wave from Bev

I'm a collector too. :-) Love your stash! It is really nice to be able to find what you are looking for in your own little stash. Can't wait to see your bunting!~ love the flags!

I personally, would rather open a closet and see a collection of fabric than shoes! Those flags are yummy.

I love, love, love these patriotic blocks. The colors are SO cheery. I had to clear out my sewing room last week because we got new carpet-Wow, what an undertaking, but I forced myself to cull my stash. I must admit, there was very little I felt I could part with!
