Today, June 14, is Flag Day in the United States.  Congress and President Truman officially dedicated, in 1949, this day as a national day of recognition of our flag.  I remember, as a child, flying a large flag from the porch of our farmhouse and having a special program in school.

Today, June 14, is Flag Day in the United States.  When I was a child we celebrated in school and at home with flag related activities.  Mother hung the large flag from our porch. Other families in our town had their flags flying, too.
Flag related designs have long been popular in quilts and quilted items.  (These can be flags from whichever country is yours.)
