The American Flag Pillow
Crochet Pattern
I am stitching up a lovely and soft American
Flag Pillow. It is a great
way to celebrate America's 250th Birthday.
It stitches up super
quick, just in time For the Fourth of July!
The Pillow Is Designed using Premier Parfait Chunky
Super Bulky (6) yarn with the Red, White
and Blue, and Trim of gold. This is yarn so perfect
for this project. You can
use any bulky (6) yarns for this project.
The Pillow measures 12 X 12 inches.
It's great for decorating around the house, the porch,
or deck. It adds a touch of Patriotic fun For any of
the American Holidays. Flag Day, Memorial Day,
4th of july and Veterans, or any time
you want that Patriotic feel.
It will also make a lovely and thoughtful gift
for any one serving in the Military and
for Our Veterans.
I just know you will love making one, and like me,
you will want to make many more.
