I have been so impressed with all of the wonderful flags so far. (Thank you Mdm Samm and Thearica for hosting this wonderful hop) All of the flags are so unique and fun! I would love to wave any on them at my home! I thought about what type of flag I would like to make. It was difficult to come up with what to do. But one morning, I'm talking two o'clock in the morning I came up with an idea! I will make a Halloween flag because I love Halloween. I know it's certainly not the right time of year, but oh well, when an idea hits you in the middle of the night, I have to run with it. So here is my flag on a stick.
I decided to use my witch paper piecing pattern for the main design. This pattern can be found free on my website and also on Craftsy. |
The finished measurements are 12" x 18", perfect for my garden flag holder at home. |
I would not have thought to make a garden flag before. I am looking forward to putting this out for Halloween next year. After making this flag, it would be fun to make several for throughout the year. I was please with how quickly this project went together. Seeing everyone's projects has inspired me! Have fun hopping around.
I get to share today with all of these talented quilters;

ReplyDeleteYour little Halloween quilt is adorable! It's never too early to get ready for the holidays!
ReplyDeleteHi Cindy love the Halloween flag and a great idea for later in the year, thanks for sharing. Susie x
ReplyDeleteGreat Halloween flag! You could make a holiday flag for each holiday too.
ReplyDeleteThat flag is so "bewitching"! And even better you're ahead of the game for Halloween next year. I'm always a day late and lots of dollars short!
ReplyDeleteHow fun!!! Great job.
ReplyDeleteOh your witch is so cute. I love your ric rack. It is sure going to complement your place (where ever you place it) this fall.
ReplyDeleteYour witch is a real charmer. Not sure I want to run into her, even if she is smiling [gg]. Who cares what time of year it is when the inspiration strikes. This way you are ready for October. I do like how you used the rickrack to accent the flag.
ReplyDeleteHow cute! Your witch is fabulous, and I love the rickrack and prairie points accents. Whenever inspiration comes we have to roll with it, even if we're stitching witches in the spring or snowmen in the summer.
ReplyDeleteGreat job Cindy...I like how you are thinking ahead!! What a fun Halloween flag!!
ReplyDeleteHappy stitching, Pauline
This is a wonderful flag. I love little witchy-poo!!
ReplyDeleteYour flag looks great and you're ready for Halloween! I love your fabrics and the green rickrack!
ReplyDeleteHalloween is one of my fav holidays!!! love your flag. it's perfect!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE it! Ric rac just seems to go with Halloween, doesn't it? Your flag is delightful. What a great idea to work a few months ahead
ReplyDeleteSuch such a beautiful design and thank you so much for sharing it with us.
ReplyDeleteI do love your witch flag. I also love Halloween, and so it was really fun to see what you did.
ReplyDeleteCheers

Cindy, what a super cute quilt! I spent so much time trying to figure out what to make too! Then I thought, what do I already have, what do I know? Sometimes we sure do make it harder than it really is, don't we? You are going to get a lot of enjoyment out of it :)
ReplyDeleteVery cute it will look wonderful on Halloween ! Thanks for sharing with us.
ReplyDeleteI remember that block :) It looks fantastic as a flag! I love it :)

I love your idea!
ReplyDeleteSmile, my first choice was also a halloween flag for us, but then my boys wanted the pirate flag, so I changed my mind.
ReplyDeleteLove your witch, perfect for November!
Love love love it!! Halloween is my fave and so is this flag!!
ReplyDeleteYay! This turned out fantastic, and thank you very much for the pattern. I now have a project I can finally use my purple rick rack on :)
ReplyDelete~Brandy
I know a lady that would just love this...your Halloween witch is just perfect.
ReplyDeleteHilda - Beatrice - or whatever, is just too cute for a witch!! I think it's the perfect time to do Halloween; there's nothing better than having a project done before the season/holiday. Great!
ReplyDeleteIt's cute as can be! At least you are ready for Hlaloween. Now don't forget to put it out. LOL
ReplyDeleteSorry, I've been trying to post from my laptop, and it just wouldn't let me. Glad I have one computer that works right.
I've never been one to decorate for Halloween much. I also decorated some when my children were at home. Now you have me thinking in a new direction with the garden flag. I love this flag. You'll be ready for Halloween this year. You are an inspiration. Thanks for sharing.
