Patriotic Baby Blocks
This is a takeoff from Jenny's Baby Blocks quilt, times four. I used scraps and a few odd jelly roll strips for the 16-patches. I was at a loss as to what to do with the large white spaces. My embroidery machine provided the solution; I embroidered the flag with the Pledge of Allegiance in the center, then fireworks, redwork eagles and finally a US map at the top. Placement of the embroidery wasn't perfect, but I'm pleased with how it turned out!
