Marne and Caro's quilting projects (part 1)

When we were at Yvonne's house we saw this cute little quilt hanging in the kitchen. We forgot to take a picture. But she send us one. Thank you Yvonne.

I made a pattern in inches. You can decide for youself how wide you want to make the border. You can frame it, or put a binding around it.

Materials:
- 50 buttons to represent the States of America
- a piece of blue fabric
- a piece of red fabric
- a piece of cream fabric
- brown thread (DMC or country thread)

Cutting (including 1/4 inch seam allowance).
From the blue: 1x square:  "2.75 x 2.75" inch
From the red: 2 strips:  "1.25 x 3.5", and 2 strips: "1.25 x 5.75" inch
From the cream: 1 strip: "1.25 x 2.75", 2 strips "1.25 x 5.75"

I just used old buttons from shirts etc.
Good luck!!! Marne and Caro
