Didn’t exactly get this painting done in time for the 4th of July, but here is my latest painting, Red, White and Blue. This painting is based on the very first quilt I made many years ago. (Any real quilter can tell this was done by a novice, by the uneven stitching and how the triangle points don’t always match up!)
