I think that it's fun that you are honoring your ancestors with a quilt. This one is very nice...not too complicated but interesting to look at. Let us know how it turns out.

I saw a tutorial for making the Alamo block and want to make a quilt with it since I'm here in Texas. So much fun!

Patrice, I had to look up that block & found this beautiful one in red, white & blues & looks easy to make.

Not to hi-jack this thread on the Italian block, but in the interest of making a quilt to honor your heritage, here is a cool layout for the Alamo block.
