And I love that fabric in your second pic, what is it called?
I totally agree with this. I love the two themes, but for a patriotic quilt, go with something other than the flowers in the center. I like the stars and stripes idea, and the eagle, too. Or how about fireworks? (Not sure how you'd make that though.) I didn't see the teddy bear, but I'm not sure a teddy bear would do it for me either.

Pam,
I sticking my 2 cents in again. Pam you do have great instincts and I still really like the look of BA and the pattern in the middle for me is perfect . When I think patriotic, I always thing BA, because of the time BA were designed. What ever you decide will be great.

The flowers are pretty - but my first thought was also an eagle - as long as you are doing the patriotic - how about a liberty bell? a copy of the constitution? books for education? - need an informed people to make intelligent decisions.
