And it's July 5th, so it's my day to share with you!
The project I have for you is an easy and fun table topper called Firecracker. Yes, I know that the 4th was yesterday but I really this table topper and you can make it for next year or you can make it out of Halloween or Christmas fabric and it would be super cute out of one of those too.
Click here to download your copy of the Firecracker pattern.
Now for a big-time family favorite recipe for summer time grilling~
~BBQ RIBS~
What you need~
2 racks of pork ribs. (Cut in half, so you have 4 smaller racks.)
1 onion cut into big chunks.
2 tablespoons butter.
5-7 beers.
28 ozs of Sweet Baby's Ray's BBQ sauce.
(You can use your favorite kind instead if you want)
2-3 tbsp. Franks Hot sauce.
Let's begin~
In large pot, put beer, butter and onion. Add rib racks. Bring to simmer and simmer ribs for 45 minutes to and hour. (Beer should cover the ribs and you may need to skim off the foam...that's what I do....don't like the brown foam that come to the top...you will see what I mean.)
Mix BBQ sauce and hot sauce together in bowl. Remove ribs from beer pot and baste with BBQ/hot sauce.
Heat grill to med-high. (Depending on the grill.) Place ribs on grill, brown both sides as desired, basting often with sauce.
The ribs are done cooking when you take them out of the beer pot...you are grilling them to give the grill flavor and to caramelize the BBQ sauce. Be careful not to over grill, as you will dry them out!
(We brown each side for approx 5 mins...it really has alot to do with the look or how brown you want your ribs. We like them medium brown. We baste each side a few times....I like them full of sauce!)
Hope you enjoyed the 4th...we spend the day boating, grilling and hanging out with family...ending the day with fireworks. Great way to celebrate America!
Now be sure to leave me a comment on your favorite holiday tradition or anything you feel like saying and you will be entered in the drawing for my new book "Cardinal Christmas" and some fat 1/4's of the Cardinal Christmas fabric...I will even throw in the panel fabric... they are so pretty! So please leave a comment here and I will let you know on friday who the lucky winner is!
Until friday~Sherri
Thank you for the sweet table topper pattern Sherri! Our favorite new tradition for holidays is calling our kids via Skype. We get to see our grandkids, too! We've even opened Christmas gifts together, with the grandkids running up to the computer to show each gift as they open them. Since we need to stay close to my MIL, traveling for the holidays is out of the question. Skype and Facetime give us our holidays together again!

I like the 4th of July because it is my brothers birthday and I get to spend time with family. I also thank all the service men and women fighting for our rights past and present. Thanks for the free pattern. I can't wait to make it.
Posted by: Lori C. | July 05, 2011 at 06:15 AM
I really love this table topper and I'm thinking I need at least two of them, maybe more...I definitely want to get one made with some fun bright Spring/Summer fabric, then I will be in my sewing room later going through my tiny little Christmas stash to see if I can get one made that is Christmasy and Festive without a trip to the LQS. Thanks so much for this pattern!!! I'm also completely in love with the Northern Cardinal fabrics. OH, be still my heart, they are so beautiful. Thanks for a chance to have some
Posted by: Nancy | July 05, 2011 at 06:31 AM
Great pattern thanks so much. Can't wait to try the BBQ ribs too.
Posted by: nami 11 | July 05, 2011 at 06:32 AM
Thanks so much for the cute project. I like your idea of using other holiday themed fabric. I may have to make several.
Posted by: Karen | July 05, 2011 at 06:44 AM
So glad the blog hop allowed me to discover your blog. The book and the fabrics look wonderful! And I may have to whip us some of the table toppers. My favorite thing about any & all holidays is getting together with extended family. Seems like those opportunities are too few and far between.
Posted by: Lisa Marie | July 05, 2011 at 06:52 AM
I'm having a great time with this blog hop! I love finding new-to-me blogs. Your table topper is darling! Thanks for the pattern. And your cardinals are so lovely!

Posted by: Gail | July 05, 2011 at 07:01 AM
I love the free firecracker pattern - just the thing to make for next year. Our holidays start by inviting family and friends to gather and share a meal. Everything after that is just a bonus. The cardinal fabric is wonderful!

Posted by: Jan Goerke | July 05, 2011 at 08:30 AM
When we were kids, the fireworks were set off out at the drive-in theater. Our church was about a mile away at the edge of town. So we'd all get in the station wagon with some blankets and watch the fireworks from the church parking lot. There were always lots of other families there, too.
Posted by: Barb Colvin | July 05, 2011 at 08:50 AM
I love this table topper. It would be perfect for my round coffee table so I am going to be making this today! I'll probably end up making it in every colorway for all the seasons.
Posted by: Chris | July 05, 2011 at 08:56 AM
I love getting together with family and catching up with each other's lives. Love your table topper.
Posted by: Brenda | July 05, 2011 at 08:56 AM
Thank you for sharing the pattern and for the lovely giveaway! what a fun hop! On July 4th I donate time to place flags on veterans graves for families at local cemeteries. Then we always have a family picnic. thank you!
Posted by: Lee | July 05, 2011 at 09:11 AM
We just love to sit and catch up with friends on the 4th. Having great food to eat makes the day even better! Always enjoy seeing fireworks, too. Thanks for the great giveaway!

Don't do anything in particular for the 4th of July. Mostly spend time with my best friend/husband! = ) Thanks for the great give-away ... and the pattern. Love the table-topper.
Posted by: Deanna | July 05, 2011 at 09:20 AM
Thanks so much for the pattern.
The rib recipe sounds intriguing.
Posted by: Pat B from MN | July 05, 2011 at 09:26 AM
Thanks for the topper pattern. I like the hexagon shape. Since we have a 2 1/2 year old the last few years we don't stay out late, but we can see our friend's really good show from our house, so we still get some fireworks and our son gets his sleep!
Posted by: Janelle J | July 05, 2011 at 09:34 AM
Love the table topper and the ribs sound so delicious. Just have to try them out. Thanks for the chance to win.
Posted by: Ann | July 05, 2011 at 09:43 AM
I just saw that fabric yesterday at Fat Quarter shop and fell in love with it. I adore anything with cardinals on it.
I am doing your rib recipe as soon as I can get to the store for some ribs!!! Sounds great.
Posted by: Gwynette in NW Arkansas | July 05, 2011 at 09:45 AM
My favorite thing to do on holidays is to have a cookout with family. Yesterday we watched our 20 month old grandson play baseball-so cute and so much fun. I love your new fabric and book and would love a chance to win them. Thanks.
Posted by: Sally | July 05, 2011 at 09:46 AM

I love Christmas! Growing up my mother always made pajamas for us. I did the same with my children and am now doing it for my grandchildren (all 22 of them). Can't wait to make your pattern, thanks for sharing!!
Posted by: Syd | July 05, 2011 at 10:19 AM
My favorite holiday tradition is that my mom bakes my sister and I our favorite filled cupcakes like the hostess ones, but better only on our birthdays. Always looking forward to October and February, the birthday months.

THANKS SHERRI! THIS IS A WONDERFUL GIVEAWAY=LOVE THE PATTERN+THE FABRICS!
Posted by: Linda | July 05, 2011 at 10:56 AM
Cardinal Christmas makes me think of a favorite Christmas tradition. When I was growing up, we always had my grandparents to dinner on Christmas Eve. We'd exchange our gifts, and then attend midnight mass. I particularly remember the times it snowed. One year we couldn't even get out of the house! Another time, the first snowflakes began to fall just as we left the church. My parents and grandparents are all gone now, and my brothers and I live far from one another. I treasure those memories.
Posted by: Pat V. | July 05, 2011 at 11:00 AM
Sherri, thanks for organizing the blog hop. I've printed the table topper pattern and will start by making a Halloween table topper and then a Christmas one. I would luv to win the cardinal fabric and the book. Cardinals were my Dad's and father-in-law's favorite birds. They have both passed, so making a cardinal quilt project would bring back memories of Dad and JD. Thanks for sharing your talents and giving us a chance to win an awesome giveaway....(o:
Posted by: Pauline | July 05, 2011 at 11:16 AM
Love the Firecracker pattern! It will be perfect on my round table, in Minnick and Simpson fabric. My favorite holiday tradition is Thanksgiving dinner at my Aunt and Uncle's house (where your cardinal quilt would match beautifully...)
Posted by: Amy | July 05, 2011 at 11:26 AM
fabrics are wonderful! love the topper! no special July 4th tradition. swimming and BBQ are usually in order.
Posted by: Carol Campbell | July 05, 2011 at 11:31 AM
We like to camp on the 4th and enjoy the campfire at night. I'm excited to participate in this blog and for the patterns posted. What fun! thanks!
Posted by: Patty A | July 05, 2011 at 12:22 PM

Posted by: Beth | July 05, 2011 at 01:07 PM
Great pattern and idea about using the Halloween fabrics! My husband loves Sweet Baby Rays, so I'll have to share this recipe with him.
Posted by: Anita | July 05, 2011 at 01:23 PM
Love the pattern. And more important - what time is dinner. The ribs pic is making me hungry. Thanks for the giveaway.
Posted by: Nancyz | July 05, 2011 at 01:38 PM
The ribs sound yummy! Who does the grilling at your house? I always thought the guys did the grilling but my husband does not cook/grill! I love sharing fun times with family and friends and seeing my dad or dad-in-law do the grilling!
Posted by: Sharrieboberry | July 05, 2011 at 01:41 PM
Love the Firecracker pattern! Will definitely put it on my "to do" list! And am excited about your new pattern book! I always love the ideas you come up with for the Holly Taylor fabrics! Thanks for sharing you talent with us all!
Posted by: Mrs. DillyDally | July 05, 2011 at 02:23 PM
BBQ ribs, sounds yummy and made me hungry! We really like the 4th of July because we spend it with a BBQ and our children/spouses and grandchild. It made for a very relaxing, fun weekend. Thanks!
Posted by: Deb A | July 05, 2011 at 02:39 PM

Posted by: Kristi | July 05, 2011 at 02:50 PM
Thank you for the free pattern and recipe. Oh my...the Northern Cardinal book looks wonderful! I think that is now going to top my birthday wish list! Thanks again.
Posted by: Brenda Smith | July 05, 2011 at 03:20 PM
Just printed the Firecracker pattern... too late for RWB so I am off to my stash for some fall fabrics. And may look for something in the Christmas fabrics. Lends itself to a lot of fabric selections. Thank you!!
My DH had the smoker full of pork loins yesterday! Great with BBQ sauce, roasted potatoes, and cole slaw.
Thanks for the chance at your book! Lovely fabrics, too! ...Karen
Posted by: Briarside Lane | July 05, 2011 at 03:30 PM

Posted by: Patty | July 05, 2011 at 03:33 PM
I love the free pattern will be something I can make to use next year. Our tradition for 4th of July is to go to grandparents home and watch the local parade. We also barbq something and then make homemade ice cream for dessert. The kids just love it. The ribs will be something we can try next year! But will have to make them soon to get practiced up.
Posted by: Sandra Hicks | July 05, 2011 at 03:49 PM

Posted by: Barbara | July 05, 2011 at 05:11 PM
Thanks for the cute table toppper pattern. I've always loved fireworks, so that's my favorite tradition of July 4th. But I also always make an angel food cake with red and blue sprinkles mixed in and sprinkled on top of the icing.
Your fabric is very lovely and I like what I see of the book. What a wonderful giveaway!
Posted by: Mary | July 05, 2011 at 05:18 PM

Posted by: Dee | July 05, 2011 at 08:44 PM
Thank you for the fun table topper. I'm thinking of trying it with halloween fabrics. I really need to try your rib recipe. My mouth is watering, they look so good. Every year our little city Ralston NE, has the best parade and fireworks show. My husband and I always ride our bicycle built for two to watch the fireworks. Everyones always fighting for parking but we can sneak around everyone and sit on the bike trail to watch. It's always a lot of fun.
Posted by: Karen | July 05, 2011 at 09:06 PM

Posted by: Kristin M | July 05, 2011 at 09:35 PM
Family and food are our favorite holiday traditions. Grilling steak, chicken or pork chops in the summer if possible. Whenever the kids are home, I try to make caramel or cinnamon rolls for 1 breakfast meal. We love to cook together, so we have a lot of fun! This year we had our celebration a week early when all the kids and grandkids were home at the same time, first time in almost 2 years!!
Posted by: Nancy L | July 05, 2011 at 09:41 PM

Posted by: Cherie W Meservy | July 05, 2011 at 09:59 PM
July 4th is our fav holiday. Watching my youngest shot off fireworks is simple fun at it's best!
Posted by: Mandy M | July 05, 2011 at 10:29 PM
Enjoyed your post! My favorite tradition is attending Lessons and Carols every December to listen to the beautiful music and the reading of scripture.
Posted by: Deb | July 05, 2011 at 11:18 PM
Love that pattern! My favorite July 4th activities are quiet books, sewing time, or just rest while the rest of the family is off at something more active...followed by a potluck picnic.
Posted by: Patty | July 05, 2011 at 11:54 PM
I saw my first cardinals when visiting my sister in Indiana. Your book and fabric would give me a way to commemorate that visit. Thanks for the giveaway.

Thanks a bunch for the free "Firecracker" quilt pattern. Very very cute!!! This year on the 4th I pieced together a quilt top. It was very relaxing and a great way to enjoy the holiday! The evening of the 3rd we watched the fireworks display over at a neighbor's. Would love to win your book and fabric! - They look wonderful! HUGS... and stitches

Love your little table topper. I enjoy reading your blog.
Spent the 4th weekend helping my daughter move. Did go out to eat but too tired to go down to the fireworks.
Posted by: Pat | July 06, 2011 at 09:03 AM
Cute table topper and delicious looking ribs. We make ribs for the 4th too - and made far too many of them this year. Our eyes were bigger than our appetites so now it's dreaming of what to do with the leftovers. I think jambalaya is next up.
Posted by: marcella | July 06, 2011 at 09:45 AM
This is the perfect table topper for a round table! A lazy morning with the family and good food later, is what I enjoy the most on almost any holiday!!
Posted by: Shaun | July 06, 2011 at 10:44 AM
Love the pattern, I think it will make a great summer table topper, or fall... I think the choices are endless. Now to start cutting and sewing.
Posted by: Gale Lavers | July 06, 2011 at 10:55 AM
I love that table topper and can picture it in so many different colors for the holidays....can't wait to try it! Those ribs sure look yummy.
Posted by: Mary Jean | July 06, 2011 at 10:58 AM
My favourtie way to celebrate the holiday is to get together with family or if that is not possible to enjoy the day sitting on the porch and stitching. The rib recipe sounds so good! thank you for the table topper pattern.
Posted by: Sherill | July 06, 2011 at 11:19 AM
Cute Pattern thank you!
Holidays I just look forward to friends and family....visiting and watching the kids swim and have fun..
Posted by: Gidget | July 06, 2011 at 11:38 AM
My favorite tradition for the fourth of July is to get together with family before the fireworks. We always grill something yummy and the kids play in the sun while the adults talk (or play too). Thank you for the wonderful pattern, I can't wait to get started on it!
Posted by: Kristen | July 06, 2011 at 12:04 PM
Hexagon patterns are a favorite of mine. Thank you for the opportunity. This was a relaxing holiday weekend wrapped up with a favorite activity - watching A Capitol Fourth on PBS.
I can't remember where I saw your cardinals panel, yet when saw it knew that my mother would love it! We've had many red birds around lately (what we call cardinals) and one must have a nest in a flower bush. Hope win so my Mom can make a quilt with a favorite bird.
Posted by: Marcia W. | July 06, 2011 at 12:53 PM
Favorite holiday traditions just revolve around taking time away from work and enjoying the kids. thanks for chance to win.
Posted by: Patty D | July 06, 2011 at 02:50 PM
thank you for the free pattern for the table topper. I think I'm going to make this one and KEEP it for myself. Red, White and Blue, because I don't have anything patriotic to put on the table for the 4th. My nieces' birthday is today (5th)and as she was growing up we always had a family birthday picnic for her. She's grown up and moved away, but is back in town visiting and we're having our family picnic tomorrow. I love getting together with my family, stopping the craziness and running around and just sitting and visiting, laughing and enjoying each others company.
Posted by: Michele Gailey | July 06, 2011 at 10:39 PM
Wow! What an awesome give-away. Thank you so much for your generosity:) Please enter me for a chance to win - I LOVE quilt books! One of my favorite 4th of July memories to recreate is when my parents used to decorate the neighborhood kid's bikes with crepe paper streamers woven through the spokes of our wheels - we all LOVED it! Then we'd attach a playing card to the fender so our bikes made what we imagined was a motorcycle sound as we pedaled around showing off our 'cool' bikes & trikes.
Smiles, DianeM
Posted by: DianeM | July 07, 2011 at 05:01 AM
I love BBQs with my family for the 4th :)
Posted by: Deserae Fiedler | July 07, 2011 at 06:28 AM
I can almost taste the ribs, we are fans of Sweet Baby Rays sauce too. I came here for the quilting, but now I must shop and cook. Thanks!
