The Grand Ole Flag! 

I designed this quilt about 10 yrs ago for a magazine that has been out of print a long time. Then in 2017 I remade it in one of my Moda Fabric lines with aqua sashing for a fresh fun look!  Its super easy to cut all the flags, then chain sew them. 

I finished it!!  Quilted with my Aurifil Thread

The batting i used makes it wonderful.

I might put this on the front porch, I think i need a hanger for quilts on my porch.

What do you think?

This line will give you a similar feel to mine

I hope you enjoy making your own version and then Please come back and share a photo of your quilt with me down below!

My Mystery Block Wednesday is very easy this summer with a very wonderful theme!  We'll be chatting about our favorite things on Main Street. Many of you told me you don't have a town, but I bet there is a place, like a plaza or a shop, that everyone gathered. Maybe the local roller rink, or grocery store is where you see your neighbors and catch up on things. That is what we'll celebrate this summer!

THE DOWNLOAD is at the end of my article HIGHLIGHTED IN PINK, so keep reading

In each pattern I have a memory or story of my own. When You share your block at my Facebook group, or when you leave me a comment after posting your block, share YOUR memory with me!

The local 5 & 10 starts off our Main Street Adventures, I can't wait to hear about Main street!

PLEASE READ INFO:

• Blocks are ALL 12.5" for this project
• At the end of ALL my Block Wednesday sew alongs I give you a BONUS layout using multiples of the block. 
• For this sew along I'm using making two of the same quilt with different fabrics, much like I did for Christmas Fig. 
• Fabrics I'm using are beloe

TIP:

• Some weeks I'll have a tip. The units for this block are interchangeable. So you can decide placement before you sew.
• Make the Half Square Triangle Unit first
• Layout out the blocks until you have them the way you like them. These are 2 options for my General Store quilt
