I am enjoying seeing fabric stash choices. Wow! Very pretty! I went to my local quilt group today and encouraged these wonderful quilters to join this swap with me. I hope they will join in the fun.

Here are the proto-type of my first four blocks girls. I hope you like them.

The sailor dress and eagle are in honor of my family members serving in the marines and navy. The cherries are in honor of George Washington who as everyone knows chopped down a cherry tree. And lastly the butterfly is the freedom we all are enjoying.

Red, I love all your demo blocks. That little Sailor dress is my favorite. I love the fabrics your working with. You have a fun stash!

Thanks Judith. I have many more to choose from. I like you, have been hoarding these for a patriotic red white and blue quilt. I want more though and noticed connecting threads has a new line that would be fun to use. I am thinking of picking up the fat quarter stack they have there.

While looking at one of your links, earlier in this thread, I saw a darling patriotic red white and blue quilt pattern by pat sloan. So adorable with many blocks to make a quilt. I went to her site and bought it. Gee, I really didn't need another project. LOL!

Here is a sample of one block that I will do. My white on white background is scrappy and I didn't notice that I had used two kinds of fabric till I had them all cut out. I have some bad lighting today. It is really overcast. Do you all think it looks too weird or is it ok?
