Three Cheers for the Red, White and Blue . . . in Quilts

Lady Liberty appliqued wall-hanging, pieced by my sister, quilted by me, in 2000
In celebration of our nation’s birthday, this Fourth of July, I will share with you my collection of handmade quilted items in red, white, and blue. I’ve made these over the years from fabric scraps. They’ve become treasured holiday keepsakes.
Star Soup quilted wall hanging, made in 1995
Glory Be quilted wall hanging, made in 1998
Pledge of Allegiance, embroidered and hand-quilted while on a trip to Washington, D.C. in 1999

Yes, indeed, except for the Lady Liberty, which my sister pieced and I finished.

Enjoy the quilts very much I made a red white and blue topper this year, which I gave to my daughter. I love your patterns.
