HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY
One of my favorite quilts - this quilt was featured in the October 2005 issue of McCall's Quilting.
Service flags were first displayed during World War I - originally designed by WWI Army Captain Robert L. Queissner, 5th Ohio Infantry, in honor if his two sons who served in the war - they came to symbolize the hopes of every family who has a loved one in active duty.
Each blue star on a Service Flag represents a family member serving in the Armed Forces.
