Belfast Historical Society
This detail shows stars on the blue canton of the Belfast Civil War flag quilt. The large white star contains the Lord's Prayer and each of the five points contains a biblical verse drawn from either the old or new testaments.
The smaller stars surrounding the large star represent a battle or campaign in which Belfast soldiers took part in. This photograph was taken before the quilt was conserved.
