Jacki, Seems that I was first to rain on your parade and am glad others joined me in my opinion. I/We do want to thank you for hearing us on this side of the pond. Our flag has been through a lot, both here at home, as well as across the world and I believe we are all very protective of our red/white/blue. We, however, commend you on wanting to bless a child with a quilt and asking for our opinion. Although the answer you received is not what you may have expected, but appreciate you hearing us. By responding as you have, we all wish many blessings onto you. Suz
