Pledge of Allegiance

One patriotic project finished; one to go!  I even got the label on the back!

Pledge of Allegiance measures 45" x 19", and will be donated to the church youth fund raiser auction for their Christmas ski trip.  I divided the hanging sleeve on the back so it can be hung from the center point, or from brackets on each side.  I will include a small rod with the donation.

As you can see, I have the wall hanging on a yardstick (which will not go with it!).  Of course, the yardstick is too wide for my closet door.  I have it hanging from the center on a clear plastic over-the-door wreath hanger.  If it goes too cheap at the auction, I'll buy it back, and hang in there in the sunroom during patriotic days/months!  I like how it looks there!
Center Block

Now if I can ever get those stars on The Wave Salute!  That's next, and it will be mine!

'Til next time, have fun quilting!

    Looks Great! I love the way the binding sets it off! It will be a nice addition to your patriotic collection if you buy it back, but would be good if someone else pays lots for it. There was a snow storm in Flagstaff, AZ, so we stopped early in Williams for the night. It was about 28 degrees this morning.

    It really turned out great! I love the fabrics you used. I hope it auctions for a great price, but by all means, if it doesn't seem high enough, buy it back and enjoy it. It looks so nice on your door.

    It is star spangled great! I knew the binding was really going to be perfect. It does look really good hanging right where it is. ;)
