It's a beautiful Union Jack quilt and you did a MAGNIFICENT quilting job! Love your quilting! I'm going to take a quilting class and hope that one day I'll be able to quilt like that!

Yes it did but the Union Jack (of which this quilt is), or any adaptation of it, was not one of the designs at any point in the history of the Confederacy.
