Instructions
- 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.
- 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.
- Then, sew 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. (You can just sew down the middle of the letters only if you would like.)
- Once you have all of your pieces sewn down, 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.
