Gail, of
Quilting Gail, gave the 5th prompt for the SAHRR, which is to make a block using 2 colors, or 3 if using a background color too. I knew what I wanted to do right away was to make a block that represents the flag of Ukraine, which uses two equal colors of blue and yellow. I made 4 little Ukraine flags to either place in the 4 corners of the quilt or directly above or below the last sewn blocks. I haven't decided where I want them to go until I learn about the next prompt and what I will end up making for prompt 6. So I placed the little flags in the 2 positions to see how they will look and they will be sewn next time with the next prompt. I had planned on donating this quilt to Ukraine when I first began this quilt, hence the sunflower starting block and the sunflowers on the last prompt. I will donate it through
Wrap the World with Quilts, organization based in Lehi, Utah.

| Flags placed above & below the sunflower blocks here is one possibility. The next prompt will be blocks that will be sewn between the flags, top & bottom. |

| Flags placed at the 4 corners, leaving room for whatever blocks are made for the next prompt. |

I think donating this quilt to Ukraine is a lovely idea and your flags are the perfect two colour blocks to go with your sunflowers :)

ReplyDeleteThe Ukraine flag blocks are the perfect choice for your quilt. I look forward to seeing how they work with the final prompt.
ReplyDeleteSo much beauty in this quilt, and now the flags! Whoever receives this lovely quilt will cherish it, and the time you took to make it. I have a couple of Ukranian quilters I follow (and try to buy their FPP patterns when I can), so I know this will be very welcome. Slava Ukraini!
