Supplies needed to make this DIY Christmas flag:
Some links below may be affiliate links which means that you do not pay anymore however a portion of your purchase will go to support this site. Some items below may also have been given to me free of charge however all projects and opinions are my own.
- Cricut Maker (Want to see the difference between the machines? I compared the Cricut Maker and Explore here.) NOTE: My recommendation is to use the Maker for all fabric projects including this one.
- Cricut Felt Carousel Sampler
- Burlap
- Sewing machine and thread
- Fabric glue
- Scissors
- Cricut cut file (click here and click customize)
The reason I love my Cricut Maker for projects with felt is because of the clean cuts that I can get. Just look at these cuts! Click here to access the file for this project and then click customize. Be sure to add your name and resize to fit the flag size that you will be using.

Can’t watch the video or missed some of the steps? Try the tutorial below.
Instructions:
- Cut the pieces from Cricut felt and remove from mat.
- Cut your burlap with scissors to the size desired.
- Then lay out your pieces onto the burlap flag.
- Use fabric glue to secure the pieces into place and then allow to dry.
- Start by sewing all the way around your burlap with your sewing machine. This will keep your edges from fraying.
- Then sew around all of your felt pieces with a sewing machine.
- NOTE: You can just sew down the middle of the letters only if you would like.
- Once you have all of your pieces sewn down then sew across the top in two places to make a pocket for your hanging rod.
Then your Christmas flag is complete and you can hang in your yard for a little Christmas cheer.
I am infatuated with the tree in the little red truck. I have used that design for this project as well as a shirt this year. (You can find the shirt file here.) I am wondering what else I can put this on before the holidays! You have to love it! Make this Christmas flag for your home and add a little holiday cheer to your front lawn.

OMG, I’m so happy I found this through the #HomeMattersParty! I have been looking to find out if the Cricut Maker would cut felt. Do you know if it would cut the less stiff felt? I’m wanting to make some felt toddler activities out of those felt sheets that are much more flexible
Definitely! The Maker is the machine for felt cutting!
