This is going to be for my daughter's graduation come Spring, 2015. Her school flag is the Union Jack and she's been watching this progress with a close eye. The quilt top is paper pieced using the pattern from the January, 2014 issue of McCall's Quilting called, "His Royal Union Jack."
The original pattern called for making 18 blocks. I opted to make 32 as we wanted a large, bed-sized quilt. The bright, fun colors of the fabric from Moda's Chance of Flowers line really make this quilt.
I'm so glad to have this giant finished!! On to my next challenge!
