From 1776 to 2026, a quarter of a millennium. A milestone like this lands once in a lifetime: the last was the Bicentennial in 1976, and the next round number is a full century away. This is the one that falls in our hands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eBecause of the Brave\u003c\/strong\u003e kit is the quilt to mark it. A traditional \u003cstrong\u003eSawtooth Star\u003c\/strong\u003e design in deep blue, clean white, and rich red, built as a tribute you make with your own hands instead of something you buy off a shelf. Anyone can hang a flag. A handmade quilt is a different order of tribute, and a year like this one asks for exactly that.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is something fitting in the cloth itself. The star at the heart of this quilt is pieced from Northcott’s \u003cstrong\u003eAmerica 250 Stonehenge\u003c\/strong\u003e fabric, a collection created to commemorate the nation’s 250th anniversary, 1776 to 2026. You are making a 250th quilt from the very fabric designed to mark the 250th. There is a rightness to that we could not let pass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA Tribute Worth Awarding\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 60″ x 72″ throw is the size many quilters use to award to a veteran through the Quilts of Valor Foundation.
