How To Make a Banner Flag
Heart Tutorials and Inspiration
Thanks to the VMQG for giving me this opportunity to
make something with my little hands
to add to the celebration of life and love in Boston.
I will be sending this flag to add to this banner.
These lovely little flags are so happy and sew easy to make.
I will also be making some to hang in my backyard this summer.
I hope to see them flying everywhere.
May you make these little flags and hang them in your hometown, too.
In your yard for friends and family gatherings.
In your home for your children and grandchildren.
Please consider making one to send to Boston, too.
Share the love!
Thanks to these little birdies for helping me to spread the word ...
