Great quilt!!! Congratulations to your son for braving it by including the Canadian block ... without any direct American patriotic fabric inclusions.
For those that are wondering ... here's a link that I suspect is the background for Tashana's son's reasons ... watch thru to the end for the full explanation.

We are Canadians living in the USA, BUT we were all born in a different country. My husband was born in Canada, I was born in Bosnia, our son was born in Italy and our daughter was born in the USA. We are a multinational family and very proud Canadians. My daughter is the only one with dual citizenship, and she is a true little New Yorker.
The quote "I am, you know I am, I am Canadian" is from a Molson Canadian song (Proud to be Canadian) that became an unofficial Canadian anthem. If you are a Canadian, you know what I am talking about. If you are not, here is a link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zWDXE9Pbjic

Tashana ... Thanks!!! Looks like I was on the right wavelength, and just didn't find the right link! Both links were part of the same ad campaign ... gotta love both of those ... Molson's did a great job!
