Hooray for the Red, White and Blue! Louise here with a quick post to share an orphan block quilt. Patriotic quilts are very popular with veterans, so I'm always happy to put one together.
The two flag blocks are the centerpiece of this quilt, and I added other blocks to make coherent rows. This photo shows the loose Baptist fan quilting motif I used.
Someone kind donated the border triangles already sewn into long strips which made finishing the top easy peasy. Many thanks to everyone who sends in donations of blocks, scraps, and yardage!
Covered in Love is a 501(c)(3) charity that donates quilts to patients dying in the hospital, over 1700 so far! The Winter 2026 block drive is live now. Check out the main post HERE if you want to get involved.
