Thoughtful Thur~ 250 Celebration Yard Flag

 

 

The only thing I had in mind for this flag was
the fabric I would use to cut the numbers.
The font is just the same old free hand cut
I've made since way back doing 
bulletin boards for the classroom.
 
Once I pulled out my fabrics (my color pallet),
and started laying out bits and pieces 
the ideas came to my head.
 
The height of letters about 6 inches
and width 5 inches.
 
The "ribbons" are 2.5 inches wide.
They were cut off where the bottom piece was added.
The ribbons were only appliqued down about 3 inches.
The rest was left to hang free.
Here you see one is still wet from 
Fray Check being applied.
The one on the left is already dry.
 
I still have my bottle of Fray Check from 
about 20 years ago
when we thought we had to have it to
finish serger end seams.
 

 
I didn't notice till I pulled up the pictures on the computer
I forgot to applique the center of the zero.
In the quilting world around here
we have a saying for accepting mistakes,
"If you can't see it while riding by on a fast horse,
then it's acceptable."
So will the cars driving by see that?
The walkers, maybe?
Since it has iron on interfacing on the back
I'm not worried. 
 

 What a great year to celebrate!
