Spring Flag Banner

We have returned to Michigan after a three month hiatus in Florida for the winter! I have been getting back into the swing of things here in the Chicken Ottoman Empire, doing a little stitching and crafting. I love making these flag banners because they're soooo easy to put together and it's a fun way to use up fabric odds and ends. This particular fabric dates back to the 80s! We used to live in a town where there was a children's clothing manufacturer. A couple of times a year they would open their doors to the public for a big sale. You could buy leftover bolts of fabric for $1/yard so I was always stocking up. I made crib sets for my kiddos with the gingham and stripes you see here, plus tons of little sun dresses and bloomers for my daughter. I still have gobs of it left so I'll be looking for other ways to use some of it up!

Stay tuned!
