I also thought of detailing the eagle but since Liberty isn't detailed I thought it would look better if I leave it simple. Thinking of adding a small red border then bind in navy blue...? what does everyone think..... |

Just beautiful and so patriotic. I want to make a quilt that will honor our service men ( have a nephew who in over
in the war zone) I want to make a quilt to honor all the time he has spent defending this country and us. I just love your desigh and yes this would no-doubt be a good selling pattern if you chose to do so. Flo in NNY |

This is lovely! And I'm always amazed at those who can design and execute quilts! I might be able to tweak, but never design or execute! I love that Lady Liberty is not detailed. Again, wonderful quilt!

VERY nice. I LOVE TO SEE THE PATRIOTIC QUILTS!! I purchased a wooden (woodburned) and detailed sign/wall hanging for my daughter and her husband 2 years ago-Home of the Free BECAUSE of the Brave. he is being deployed. again. That was before I started quilting and my talents are not what yours are. someday. . Thanks for thinking of the soldiers. do you have someone serving?
