Need patriotic pattern idea
#3
Oh, Mama, the possibilities are endless! I'm making patriotic quilts for Quilts of Valor, a wonderful org that sends them to returning service men and women, and we've done a ton of them in red, white & blue.
If I were you, I'd use both fireworks and add some white or tone-on-tone and maybe some gold. Any star design would work along with another choice or two. At the moment, I'm working on a simple two block quilt which consists red and white Rail Fence and white Friendship Stars on a blue background.
I'm sure others have more suggestions, but what kind of blocks did you have in mind for your quilt?

I love that idea. Now I just need to figure out how to make it lots bigger. Super neat, thanks. I think that is the best idea I have seen yet. And it is so different. :)
