I had SEW much fun making this little mini flag. I stitched it in my 4x4 hoop. Finished size is 5x6! I have plans to make more flags with different designs, spray with outdoor waterproofing spray and place in my garden. They are small enough fit almost anywhere and be a cute little addition to my garden or inside my house.
I love it!

342463948Love it. Sonia Showalter has a garden flag which are initials and it is free. Check out her site. She does beautiful work!
7495I love your flag. I wish my Goodwill had cute things like this. I check them
out almost dailey. Then to Hancock's and JoAnn's. I make a circle. What
is the name of the water proofing spray and where do you get it? I have
been debating as to whether I should make an outdoor Alabama flag
because of the weather. I have seen them made out of burlap. My
Michael's didn't have anything to waterproof the flags. Thanks

If you go to stores like Walmart, Meijer and etc., head right to the camping area. You will find Camp spray in an aerosol can that is used to waterproof tents, chairs, sleeping bags and almost anything. The can sells for $6! It works great too. I live in Michigan with mighty winters and I have left mine out year round and they still look terrific! I've used this on 100% cotton and also on nylon flags. If you do use cotton, be sure and wash and dry it first, so that it doesn't shrink after embroidery is done!
Good luck!
