8 days of Red, White and Blue Quilts - day 7

We're celebrating Independence Day with 8 days of red, white and blue quilts! The Declaration of Independence (July 4, 1776), says: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness." We hope your happiness includes plenty of quilting.

Proud American by Cheri McGunagle, quilted by Jeannie Rogers


Cheri McGunagle says this tumbler flag wall quilt was made with a pattern from the Missouri Star Quilt Company, using pieces of fabric left over from the American Hero Quilts project. She says, "Being able to sew for our soldiers and display our colors is an honor I cherish. God Bless America!"
