Again, great work and she is now a quilting sister.....
I'm sorrty but there's really no pattern. We just cut blocks from an assortment of red, white and blue squares--5 1/2 inches--then arranged them, and she sewed them together and pressed them. It needed borders so, back to the stash. For those of you who may be teaching a child to quilt, this was all about NOT taking short cuts. She measured the sewed-together blocks across the center to determine the length of her borders and pinned everything to be sure it would all fit. She thought it was a lot of trouble but was pleased as punch when everything ft together the way it was supposed to and the quilt was square and flat.
