It's hard to believe that July is right around the corner. It's also fun to pull out some of my summertime decorations. These are some of my favorites for July and feature red, white and blue or the American flag.
My flip flop table runner and tea towel are some of my summertime favorites to decorate with. The flip flop design is a free pattern! It's a quick and easy pattern and makes a great hostess gift. It can be found on the Quilt Doodle Designs website under the quilting fun tab. It's adorable on a tea towel and can easily be made into a summertime table runner with a few fat quarters. The flip flop design would be ever so cute put on a summer tote too!
I also have a couple newer designs that feature Belvedere that are fun to put on display for the month of July. In fact, I leave mine out all summer. In both designs, I used wool for the applique and machine stitched around everything. You can easily use cotton fabric too. It's up to you. I used either fabric yo-yos or big buttons for the wheels on the blue truck.

There's still time to make these sweet designs for the 4th. All of these designs would be great to work on this weekend or to put on display as part of your summertime decorating. I plan on firing up the grill for the 4th. I haven't decided if I'll make burgers or brats or smoke a roast. I'm just hoping for some sunshine and no smoke from Canada! The only smoke I want to deal with is from the pellet grill!
Have a wonderful 4th of July,
Cindy and Josephine
