More Patriotism....an Easy Flag Quilt

My Patriotic decor has gone mad!  I am lovin' my Go! cutter and thought I would try the 1.5" strip cutter.

I chose {4} 1/3 yard patriotic prints. 2 lights, a red and a blue.

I cut my 3 strip fabrics 10.5" X width of fabric (44 ish).

Centered it and cut....and I didn't press my fabric...but I didn't get any zigzags in my cuts either.

Here are my strips. I have noticed with my Go! that doing a layer or 2 at a time works better than 6. I cut these strips so fast it was literally 1.5 minutes.

Subcut:

A  - 5 red 1.5" X 18.5"

B - 3 white 1.5" X 18.5"

C - 3 white 1.5" X 12.5"

D  -  4 red 1.5" X 12.5"

E  -  1 Blue square 6.5"

Lay your strips out starting with red and ending in red.

You will need 7 red and 6 white.

Make the bottom first, sew strips as follows.

Then sew top strips,

Sew the blue square to the 6." X 12.5" C/D strip set as shown.

Then sew your bottom strip set to the top.

Layer, Quilt and Bind.

I didn't finish quilting mine. I decided to use size 8 pearl cotton and hand quilt this one for a more primitive look. I will post pics as I get more done to show the progress.
