Dear Ninnie,
I am so glad you shared this quilt with us. Am always looking for patterns for a Revolutionary War quilt for my son, and the Burgoyne Surround is the only one I have found that has a history from that war. Yours is lovely and I have always wanted to make a blue and white quilt. Have been saving so many blues for such a project. Still haven't picked a pattern but have seen some lovely ones here on the QB. Would love to make a paper pieced Pineapple pattern quilt. Would be quite a project I think. Again, thanks for sharing.

Congratulations on a job well done and praises well earned! I have too also just finished piecing a scrappy Burgoyne surround after being inspired by the blue and white one previously posted here. What a labor of love and time invested in making this type of quilt! You did an amazing job and I can't wait to sandwich and FMQ the one I have made for a wedding present!
