So the flag is done but for adding the background and having it quilted. The quilt shop will quilt it in a wavy pattern like the flag is waving. I have to say this really stretched me and if I ever did it again there are so many things I would do differently. Mostly get a flat light board to better draw all those pieces. I am happy with it, well not real thrilled with the flag pole but I got a less busy piece of fabric hoping the flag shines over it. I am using red poppies for the back.
My biggest problem is where to hang it. I have 24 windows which does not lend to me having a lot of wall space and my living room with 2 large walls is painted terra cotta orange. However I am going to hang it in the living room cos it needs to be seen.
So here is my progress so far.
