FLAG DAY JUNE 14th

 So today is FLAG DAY! I made this flag to celebrate our country's flag.
Here is a rag rug for the wall created to resemble our country's flag. Created from cut strips of blue jeans, khaki and burgundy fabric. Measures 26 inches wide by 14 inches high. Prim folks will love the aged look of the colors chosen to create this..Blue jeans are old worn ones that have that rich light and dark aging.. It can be hung on the wall with the rod pocket that is woven into the back.I used brown cotton warp thread for the ground.You can purchase this from the side bar of this blog . Also you can purchase an iron rod to hang it on from the Scottish Lion ,my husband the blacksmith. He added spirals to the ends of the rod.
