Star Blocks For The Best Patriotic Quilt

Red White And Blue Make This Patriotic Quilt So Fresh

Out of all of the Patriotic quilt patterns, this particular one is really striking with the red, white and blue so crisp. As a wall quilt you get the true impact of four different stars each in their own arrangement. Very eye catching. Bordered with a strong dark blue, the star blocks almost gleam.

Red, white, and blue fabrics and star blocks are the focus of this patriotic quilt. Stitch one up for a Fourth of July or Memorial Day display. Or sew one as a way to display your favorite patriotic fabrics!

The finshed quilt size is 46 1/2″square.

The finished blocks size is 12″ square.
