Flag Quilt Block Patterns

a lot of European flags are just 3 bands of colour so they can all be done in a rail fence :-) the Dutch flag and the Luxemburg flag al *almost* the same but the red and blue of Luxemburg are paler: The Netherlands: red white blue Luxemburg: paler red white paler blue

then there is the German flag (black/yellow/red) , Spanish flag (red/yellow/red) French flag (up and down red/white/blue)

so... start with googling flags and see how many railfences you can find as they are nice and easy :-)

have fun!

A lot of countries seem to have flags of just three colours in a row.

I have never seen a patchwork block of the Uk Union Jack, probably because there are not many quilters here compared to the USA. I think you would have to paper piece it - all those corners.

However if you do do one, a word of warning! There is a right way up and an upside down. Hanging with a flagpole to the left, the white stripe at

Its original name of Union Jack came because it was used on ships, and it became what is was always called. However it now seems to be called the Union Flag now for some unknown reason. But I stick with the Union Jack!

Then once you do the Union Jack it will be easy to do the flags of Australia and NZ....LOL
