Prim Patriotic Dress



It's a dress, it's a flag, it's a little dress made from Olde Glory!
Calling all you seamstresses, and even non-seamstresses, I have an easy project for you! This adorable, perfect for this time of year, dress is made from none other than an old flag! Complete with some staining and faded colors. Now how clever is that? We all have old disgruntled flags that have been weathered and instead of throwing them out (which the proper thing to do is to take them to a flag drop off box), you can turn them into a little dress and make the cutest little patriotic display in your home.
Take a look at the one I have here....there are no finished edges!



I personally did not make this dress, but I found it at a cute little shop very cheap! So, I quickly grabbed it up and have one to look at if I ever decide to make another one! Great little gift idea, don'tcha think?! ;)

If you decide to make a flag dress, I sure would love to see how it turned out! Have a great weekend. Happy Memorial Day, and a big THANK YOU to all those who have served and are serving this great country of ours. May God Bless America.
