Simple Flag Banner

Good Morning!

Today I thought I'd share how I made a simple flag banner to hang on my living room corner hutch.  I'm sure you've seen something like it before.  I know it's been on my to-do list to make for a long time, but even I was surprised at how fast it all came together.


It was so quick and easy, I worked on it while I watched an episode of Modern Family the other night.





I love the pop of color and plaid it gives to the hutch in the corner.




I have hung it along with a strand of battery operated mini lights so I can turn them on at night for a pretty glow.






#1: cut your fabric into a two inch by three inch strip.

#2: Fold the fabric, matching the two long sides, and snip a small section from one end starting on the fold side and cutting toward the raw edges.

#3: Unfold your fabric and you have a tiny flag.

#4:  Using a sewing machine fold the top over a length of twine or yarn and sew along the top edge.

Super Simple!





And cute too!

Have a great day,

Robin

  2. Hi Robin, I too have fallen hard for red plaids right now-in fact, my eye was drawn to the throw on your chair with your baby sitting on it, before I looked at your banner. What a fun easy project; thanks for inspiring us and showing just how easy it is to accomplish.
    Have a great week.
    Hugs, Noreen
