  4. Love this little quilt, but, I believe the flag is sewn in the wrong way...the blue field should be on the left, as you look at it.

  5. Thank you for the lovely flag pattern, perhaps it will be for next year for me. But yes, Kathy is correct - the blue should always be upper-left. The pattern as is would be fine if hung on the long side though!
