I made this quilt for our "Piecemakers" quilting for charity group. It is made in our traditional 8"X9" blocks. 11 blocks across, and 7 blocks down. So no, I could not fit all the stars and stripes on this quilt. It is hanging at the church in McAllen, Texas. If it doesn't sell for the standard $75, it will be given away to one of the lucky children that get quilts in Nov/Dec.

Quilt top draped on my loveseat.

Great job! I lived in Weslaco many years ago. Went to school there from 1st through 9th grade. It's so nice to see someone post something from the RGV!
