“2 Crows & A Flag” Block I hope you are enjoying the Blog
Hop as much as I am. I want to Thank Rhonda, from Farmhouse Threads for inviting me to be part of the fun again.
I used the new Valdani Wool Floss. We carry every color of Valdani in
Pearl Cottons, 3-Strand, 6-Strand & Wool Flosses. Diamond Textiles is the background fabric. If you don’t
know what they are, you are missing an awesome line of fabrics. I have over 300 bolts of these fabrics. I
hope that you will check them out on my website
www.rustycrowquiltshop.com
Whip stitch all the parts down. Made little X’s for stars. Used size 15 Wool floss for the
Red, Blue and Black. I used Size 8 for the White Wool Floss. Nothing too hard.

This block is set on point. I used Roxanne’s glue to hold my pieces in place. Stitch the white stripes on the red first then the blue, so you can hide the edges of the cream stripes. Don’t
forget your STARS. Thanks for blogging along, Shawn
