    I got 2 squares done, and they roughly measure 10 1/2 inches. I did the blue one first, and after I did the red one, realized that I put my name & state in the wrong position, but I just can't bring myself to pick out that stitching. And like I said in an earlier post, if they can't use it, that is ok. I used a red bandana for the red square and thought it turned neat. Sure would like to see finished pictures of these quilts. What an awesome display of red, white and blue.

    Those are beautiful. I don't think the soldier will care where the name is.

    Looks great to me! I think name placement will vary with so many folks making blocks. No worries if you ask me.

    I think it looks amazing. I don't think anyone will say anything about the signature. Shoot if you didn't say something with this post I would have never known.
