I thought it might be fun to see my patriotic and flag quilts all together.
|
designed by Jan Patek |
|
Plaid quilt in red, white, and blue with buttons - love this quilt |
|
A combination of designs by Blackbird Designs |
|
Little Women 12 by Jo Morton |
|
Made in a SAL with my group Bound Together.
It now has a border made of the same ombre print as the star and the inner border. |
|
Ohio Star flag, I don't remember the designer. |
|
My first quilt. |
|
This might not look that patriotic but I sewed flags instead of the solid blocks of fabric that the pattern called for. It's was a Mystery BOM called Piece and Plenty from Fat Quarter Shop online. |
|
My first "Women of Grace and Charm" designed by Blackbird Designs. |
|
My 2nd "Women of Grace and Charm" quilt. I like this one better, I think it's because it's just a little lighter. But I like the center of the other one better - sigh |
|
I think this is my absolute favorite backing. It is the backing for the 2nd "Women of Grace and Charm" quilt above.
|
I have one other one that I didn't include. It's because there is a big glaring mistake in it and I'm going to have to unpick the quilting, reverse the offending strip, and then quilt that place again. It's not something I look forward to.
Have a happy flag day!

You have made a lot of patriotic quilts! I love the one with the buttons too.
Enjoyed seeing all your great quilts. Read your profile, you are ahead of me on the grandkids - I have 12! Thanks for your lovely comment on my blog.
The backing fabric you like so well would be a favorite for me had I ever seen any of it.
The first quilt you show, I think is Jan Patek's Country Paths. My friend and I were thinking of making it. She has all the fabric. Me, I would have to dig and stash and use something else. I enjoyed seeing all the quilts in your post. Nice collection.
A great assortment of R/W/B quilts, Robin! I haven't pulled mine out yet, but they are all small. You have lovely ones that would actually keep a person warm!
What a lovely lot of patriotic quilts! I like each one of them, so much! Jan Patek's design is a favorite, and Piece and Plenty, the first Women of Grace and Charm, and of course, Sweet Land of Liberty! After that, I like all the rest. LOL How wonderful to have such a great collection.
