“Sparkling Stars and Stripes” Quilt was made to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence beginning the 250-year journey of the United States of America. The front of the Quilt is a Quilt of Valor Pattern named “Stars and Stripes” which was expanded to 94” x 94”.
The red and blue fabrics were carefully chosen to coordinate yet yield a scrappy look indicative of the pioneers who founded this country and the spirit of perseverance that helped to build this great country. Construction of both quilt tops used nearly 400 hours of time. “United We Stand” quilting pattern married both quilt tops.
The quilt tops were pieced by Ruth Anne Snyder. Machine quilted by Sharon McKnight and a hand stitched binding by Melody DeGraziano.
This spectacular Patriotic Quilt will WOW any veteran and spouse. It will serve as a centerpiece wherever it is placed in your home.
Quilting on the Line Quilt Guild hopes that this quilt will stand the test of time, just as our ancestors did when starting out on the American Experience.
