States Of Modern: Alaska (Week 2)

Alaska!  Just the name conjures up Wide Open Spaces, Tall Mountains and lots of SNOW!

SOM Alaska

Our Alaska Block represents these tremendous state proudly.  It is a simplified version of the flag. The Alaska motto is “North to the Future” so our block has a single star way at the top!  This simple block is a wonderful example of Modern Quiltmaking with its minimalist aesthetic.

Here is some Alaska Info…
Capital: Juneau
Admission to Statehood: January 3, 1959
Flag:  Emblazoned on the dark blue field of the Alaskan flag are eight gold stars: seven in the constellation Ursa Major, or the Big Dipper. The eighth being the North Star, representing the northern most state.
State Bird:  Willow Ptarmigan
State Flower: Forget Me Not
Largest Cities:  Anchorage, Fairbanks and Juneau

Crazy Patch Purse By Machine 99 Cents!

As you can see, this is Crazy Patch for the machine age.  All stitching is by machine.  It is wondrous to use all those decorative stitches and different threads.  Sometimes I put two threads through the needle (one on a bobbin) just to see what would happen.  The results are fantastic!  The Crazy Patch is done flat then the purse is made from the created piece in a very simple manner.  Dig out your fancy fabrics… or just your favorite cottons!  And have a great time making this purse!
