Thanks everyone! It is for a collegues God-son and the directions she gave me was 'red, white and blue'... Im going to start sandwhidging and basting tonight (just wait til you see the backing fabric, its adorable!) and then start peicing my next one. I just found out that a fellow squad members mum raises forster children but they have a 3 week old baby in their care whos mum was on drugs, so thats my next project
