Star-Spangled Banner Quilt - Locating Alice's squares


Thank-you, Alice Allen. Here's where your squares are found on the completed Star-Spangled Banner Quilt:

This one is at the top toward the center.



This one is along the bottom in the center. Notice how it shows off the star quilting beautifully.
