Another PIP block

I managed to find some time to sew another Patriots in Petticoats block- to keep myself busy. The block for today is Hannah Hendee's block. Hanna single-handedly saved not only her 7 year old son from the British (Indians in Vermont would travel with the British soldiers and steal men and boys to sell for bounty) but also was responsible for securing nine other small boys. The Captain of the British camp was intimidated by her determination, but this block held little intimidation- it was straight forward and fun to make.



Because it went so well, I decided to play with colors on a possible Block of the Month for the shop. It will be a sampler if it works...and now I see I have one bit of unstitching to do! Can you spot the mistake! I'm calling it a night.
