I have been keeping this one quiet for sometime saving it for the day I entered it in the county fair. I designed it myself and handquilted it. What do you think? I quilted the eagle with shield, statue of liberty, the liberty bell on the bottom and appliqued a copy of the star spangled banner and the preamble to the constitution on it. I can't really take a good photo of it but would appreciate any comments on how I can improve on the next one.

It's BEAUTIFUL!
Improve on the next one? Umm.....hmmm.....I don't see where you can improve. I think it's perfect. But, if you REALLY want to improve it, just send it to me! :) :)
