NO SEW RAG FLAG... a great project for kids and adults! My flag has been featured in many magazines including July 2024 Woman’s Day. Materials Needed: • Fabric scissors • Various red and white fabrics. • Jumbo Rick Rack (1 1⁄4 in) • Pom Pom garland • Star fabric • 3’ or 4’ stick or wooden rod • Fabric glue 🇺🇸I made a 4’ x 6’ flag to hang from a pergola outdoors although I had enough left over to make a small 2’ x 3’ flag to hang under a tree. Prep Work: 1. Buy 2 yards of each fabric print and trim. 2. Choose your rod or stick. With a small hand saw, I cut a 4’ tree branch from a tree in our yard. You can also use a dowel rod. Steps: 1. Cut red and white fabric into 3’ in strips about 2 yards long. (Adjust proportionately if you are making a smaller one.) These strips don’t have to be perfect or even. 2. Alternate red and white strips across the length of the stick...leaving 2-4’ inches of stick bare so that you can hang it up. Tie each strip to the stick making sure to leave the free edge pointing up if you can. 3. After you have all of the red and white fabric tied, tie in some of the rick rack and pom poms. 4. Cut the star fabric to fit your flag proportionately. I cut mine 18” x 24.” 5. After you have your star fabric rectangle, on the top of the shorter side, cut small strips, just at the top, to tie to the stick. (I cut 3’ – 4’ into the fabric.) 6. Tie the strips of the star fabric, amongst the red and the white, to complete the flag. 7. You can fabric glue rick rack along the perimeter of the star fabric to give it a border as I did...or just leave it plain. 8. Take pride in the USA by hanging your crafty creation with twine! ragflag summercrafts LTKSeasonal LTKHome LTKFamily
