Fourth of July

While online today I came across a super patriotic crochet item. Starting Chain posted an American Flag Blanket she made, http://startingchain.com/?ref=june26a. And it gave me the idea that, with Independence Day right around the corner, I shall concur the project too. I hear it is fairly easy so I just need to get some supplies and get started.
I think I will give it to my little brother who just shipped off to Michigan, for Navel Boot Camp. They grow up so fast.
So here is to those who serve, have served or plan on serving. Thank you so much for your service.
