Well, it's official...the block I wondered about yesterday is called Skyrocket, and that works for me..*VBS* Thanks to Linda J. for having such great resourses and, like me, being curious. No quilty pictures today but I do have a "done it" list. Border battles have been raging here..but not with MN or ILL. I have gotten borders on 3 tops over the weekend. Finished up another set of 48 blocks that will become another Strip Twist quilt, and made a few more of the Whatever blocks that Linda J. showed us.
I've revised my list of what I still hope to accomplish in June...but it's dwinding down fast....and soon the 4th of July weekend will be upon us. Wish I had lots of quilts for this holiday, but over the years, I've only managed to make two..neither of them very big. I'll show them soon. I do have Uncle Sam patterns galore, maybe I need to make that a priority for next year..*VBS* Hope everyone had a good weekend.

Where DO you find these cute antique pictures!!?? Love them!

Good job getting the borders done and ready to go! Sometimes I just leave them off because they can get so tedious figuring out what to do!

Love your little girl picture! Thanks for coming to look for me. I'm becoming a blog-addict because I love the inspiration you all give.
Your garage-sale find is really something. Isn't it amazing those old quilts have survived with such little attenion.

Skyrocket is a great name for that block - I like it. Congrats on all the border accomplishments - you're getting far more done than I am.

Wow, you are doing good girl, borders on 3 tops! I have some backs to make for tops and borders to put on 2 that I have put off. You now have me thinking of them again, maybe this holiday weekend I will get these done!
