I love red, white & blue quilts! I have a friend who inherited a Civil War flag with a bullet hole in it--it was carried by a family member, and she has all the documentation and everything. When she bought a house we decided to plan her decorating around this flag, which hangs over the fireplace. That meant lots of red, white, & blue! And lots of quilts for me to make for her!

I used Yellow Brick Road pattern for that one. Actually made a few of them for friends. I should have taken a pic of the back of it. One has Marine Corp seal on it, one has Army and the other Navy. I embroidered names on all of them, but don't know why this one didn't show a name. Might be because it was just the top at the time and didn't get it done as of that time. <shrug>
