McKim Monday: Happy Fourth of July!

Published in 1930, the Colonial History Quilt seems like a perfect way to celebrate the Fourth of July!  There are 24 blocks in the embroidery set, including pieces depicting Vikings, Native Americans, and settlers.  The pattern was published in 1930.



One of my favorites includes George Washington at Valley Forge:

I bought these blocks a few years ago and am grateful to have found this blue fabric with stars.  I hope to get it completed in the coming year (along with my other long list of UFOs).


Wishing you a safe and happy holiday!
