I didn't see this at first and wanted you to see this too. Go back to the original thread where the picture is and fine the two surprises. One is the flag in the background, upper left and the other is the first verse of America the Beautiful in the border. Sharon FMG the verse in the border! I've been looking at this quilt and talking to Sharon for over a week and missed the border until last night. I gasped with delight!

I found them just now, but on my computer I wouldn't have found them until you said something and even than it is so faint that I had to really really study it. Thanks for the update.:)

Any way to post a link here for easy access?

Thanks for pointing that out. I had to look very closely to find the surprises.

Now I'm staring at this quilt looking for more surprises!

The flag was evident, missed the verse.

On Sharon Schlotzhaur's site there is another version of America the Beautiful with a New Mexico setting. Did she say if this will be a series of different regions?

She didn't say anything. But I did suggest that she check in and read your comments. Maybe if she hasn't considered it, she will now with your comments. You should ask her!

Thanks. Hope she checks in; if not, will probably contact her. Would love to do one of the Great Smokies AKA Anaka (Mountains in Mist)
