Flag using tumbler template

[Sandy Navas]

I saw someone here had a quilt they made of the american flag..they used the tumbler template sideways and then end to end it gave the "wavey" effect of the red and white tumblers. I can't find the picture now, but the tumblers were on their sides and longways end to end so I'd have to sew them in columns vertically, then sew the columns together vertically. However, is there a way to do this using the "chain" procedure, where you just lay 2 squares together, sew, and then at the end, don't break thread but lay 2 more and sew, then 2 more etc? I can't see that it can be done on this pattern with tumblers, but often something is right in front of my face and I can't see it cause I'm looking to hard for it! Any suggestions?
