The American Flag Pillow Crochet Pattern By Sara Sach Crochet

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.

Flag Day Washcloth And Doily Crochet Pattern By Sara Sach

 Flag Day Washcloth And Doily 
Crochet Pattern 
By Sara Sach Of Posh Pooch Designs



The American Flag Day is On Jun 14 , 
it is a very important day for me.
We are a very patriotic family because my husband 
served in The US Air Force. We have lots of family 
members who served. My Father in Law, my son where
 also in the US Air Force, My little sister was in the Navy.
 And my husband's uncle served a Navy pilot and was a
 Prisoner of War at The Hanoi Hilton. His Name is Eugene
 "Red" McDaniel. He is an American Hero.

I decided to make something that we could stitch up quickly
and would very useful. The Crochet Pattern can be a
 washcloth, a doily or just a Patriotic Decoration.


I love the Chevron style pattern, It makes me think of
 the Flag blowing  and flowing in the wind. And The 
Washcloth is nice size at 12 X 12 Inches.

Here is quick history of our American Flag - 

History of the American flag

The flag of the United States is a symbol of freedom before which Americans recite the Pledge  of Allegiance.

The flag's 13 red and white stripes represent the 13 original colonies. Its 50 white stars on a blue background represent the 50 states.

Each of the colors on the flag has a meaning:

  • Red: valor and bravery
  • White: purity and innocence
  • Blue: vigilance, perseverance, and justice

A star is added to the flag when a new state joins the United States. The flag was last modified on July 4, 1960, when Hawaii was incorporated as a state.

By Sara Sach Of Posh Pooch Designs



With some Of the American Patriotic Holidays Being
 Celebrated, Memorial Day, Flag Day And The 4th of July, 
we decided It was time to retest and update our Patriotic
 American Flag Yard Sign Crochet Pattern.
This Pattern Was Written 7 years ago, so Yes it was time.
We added lots of new pictures and 
 Filmed a brand new video

The Sign fits a standard yard sign hanger,
 as it measures 17 X 15 inches.
You can also use a small curtain rod, wooden or bamboo rod
 or even a nice sturdy stick for a rustic appearance.
So whatever your outdoor decorations are, it will fit right in.


It's a great Patriotic Decoration that you can stitch up really quick, because it is crocheted using Super Chunky
 (6) weight  yarn! 
The Flag is Trimmed off with a easy shell stitch border.
The Cute Star is embroidered on.
