The beauty of each block is incredible. When I ws in the USAF, I was stationed at Keesler AFB and toured on my one day off Jefferson Davis' Biloxi home and I still remember this amazing quilt that had blocks with the signatures of the Confederacy leadership. <br /><br />As a Union descendant, it's great to see that this tradition was a universal.
