Today we’re taking a break to celebrate Independence Day with family and friends. But first, we’d like to commemorate one of the most beautiful things about Fourth of July festivities. Nope, not the fireworks—the dramatic and dazzling red, white, and blue quilts!
Below you’ll find a collection of some of our favorite patriotic quilts designed by many Martingale authors over the years. Enjoy—and here’s wishing you and quilters throughout the United States a very happy Fourth!
"Fireworks" is glorious!
—Lynne on July 4, 2013Americana is definitely for me!
—Kathy on July 4, 2013Love the Stars and Strips! Another reason to pray for our troops whereever they are! All our Sons and Daughters need our prayers so desperately!
Their families need our support also. I have witnessed this up close
and person.
Thank you Martingale! I love your "site"!!
Thank you so much, Marlene!

I am Canadian. But the stars and stripes is a must. I am going to make it so I can keep it in the car when I visit the USA and friends and family. Yes our troops need our support and prayers – I do QOV Canada quilts in thanks for my freedom.
—Kay McKean on July 5, 2013I have one son who is career military and one who is National Guard. Americana holds a special meaning in my heart.
—Catherine Dorsey on July 7, 2013Where do I find the pattern for the patriotic star quilt that appears on Pinterest? Is it from a book? Thank you!
Hi Bonnie, would you be able to send us a link to the pattern you saw on Pinterest? Then we’ll be able to find it for you. Thanks! –Jenny

I love the American patch work quilt and was wondering where I can purchase one from I’m from Australia
—Lynette on May 12, 2018Hi Lynette, we publish books about how to make quilts! If you’d like to make a quilt, you can browse our books here. We do send to Australia, but you can also purchase eBook versions of our books to save on shipping costs. Thanks for your question! –Jenny
I’m to old to make it I did in the past but my fingers do not allow me to do it but I would love to know where i can purchase one I’m 83 years old I have been to America and saw a lot of the beautiful patch work quilts there thank you for your reply. Lynette
Hi Lynette, I’d suggest doing a search for quilt dealers in your area, or in the US – or maybe even talk to your local quilt shop to see if they have a contact for you. Hope this helps a bit – thanks for your question! –Jenny
