The States Of Modern: Washington
I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving! And I hope you saw our West Virginia/Virginia block. I got a little behind, but at this time of year, I hope I can be forgiven. This week we “visit” the gorgeous state of Washington.
The States Of Modern: Washington State Quilt Block
Our block is a hybrid of the state flag and a view of beautiful Mount Baker in the Cascade Range. I really like this block!
Washington State Facts:
Capitol: Olympia
Admission to Statehood: November 11, 1889 (42nd State)
State Bird: Eastern Goldfinch (Isn’t that funny!)
State Flag: The state flag and the state seal of Washington are similar. Passed in 1923, Washington state law describes the flag as having dark green bunting with a state seal in the center. It is the only state flag that is green. It is also the only state flag with a picture of a president.
State Flower: Pink Rhododendron
Largest Cities: Seattle, Spokane and Tacoma
