Old Glory

Happy Flag Day to all!  I have been so busy the past few days and I am TIRED!!!   Luckily the husband and I will be getting a date night soon.  I can't wait to not have to cook dinner!  I finished up this table runner this morning to commemorate the day (or the 4th of July):

Here's a close-up of the different fabrics I used.  I cut all the strips 10" long and parallel to the selvage.  Cutting them that way pretty much eliminated any stretch when I was piecing them together.  I actually haven't stitched the binding on the back yet, it's just pinned:)


My fifty-cent tomatoes are doing well.  I've got about 8 tomatoes on the vine right now.


And here are the last of the local strawberries for this season.  Blackberries should be ripening soon!!!
