Watching this thread as I, too, need some inspiration for a rw&b quilt pattern. Our local fairboard is asking for quilts to present to Purple Heart recipients of our county. And they want them by Sept. !

Eleanor Burns has a pattern called A Better Star For All Seasons.
Normaly I do not buy a single pattern but I fell in love with this one. Made a Christmas quilt from it and now plan on doing a red white and blue one.
Got it at Joanns with a coupon.
My photo software is not working right now so cannot post a picture. It is large and small stars with squares.

My avatar is my red, white and blue quilt. It's a drunkard's path I made a few years ago, and one of my favorites.

This is my "Stars over Texas" quilt. I flew to Austin and picked up the fabric and pattern there. It's more of a cream color than a white.

Do a search for "patriotic quilts" or "red white and blue" quilts - quite a few should show up -

Wow, what a great quilt Nabobw, I'm sure the widow loves the quilt and your salute to her fallen warrior....

Bonnie Hunter has a great scrap pattern on her site at:

My Quilt of Valor group made up this one for a wounded soldier from her pattern:
