I plan on making my Deputy Sheriff son a quilt for his new home and bought the Battle Hymn charm packs here and also a 5", 1/2hexi and a 5" tumbler templates to create it with. I got the charm packs today and was a bit dissapointed in them.The colors are great...dark reds/blues/greens/greys and bought the dark muslin CP too for the solid accents. Perfect for that "historical americana" look (he is also a Civic War buff) But what dissapointed me was that there is only 1 pattern with flags....and that is the only historical/americana theme in the pack. The rest of the pieces are great colors, but leaves, and floral images. I wanted something more masculine...the reason I thought Battle Hymn would be the perfect theme. I did look at them on the site, and it didn't look like so much floral patterns but they are.


So... I know I can find other uses for the more floral patterns (they are beautiful), so no prob there, but...does anyone know of any other CHarm paks that have a masculine, historical, patriotic even military-ish theme to them...with these same color schemes...dark brownish reds, blues, greens etc? OR even if I can get some fat quarters, I can cut them to size.

Thanks for any thoughts.
