Who’s ready to kick off summertime?? I love decorating for Memorial Day with patriotic items that can be left up through Fourth of July. I love crisp combination of red, white and blue. One of my favorite ways to decorate for Memorial Day and Fourth of July are with flags!

Turn Left-Over Fabric into Patriotic Flags

Turn Left-Over Fabric into Handmade Flags This project only uses a small amount of fabric, so it is perfect to use up extra fabric! It’s also a great way to mix and match different fabrics and patterns so the flag types are endless. I used two striped fabric and two plaid fabrics, but you can also use prints, polka dots, tie-dye or plain colored fabric too!

  • Fabric – two different fabrics for each flag. You can mix and match fabrics for different combinations.
  • Wood Rods – one 12-inch wood rod per flag.
  • Wood Balls – one 3/4 inch wood ball per flag.
  • Hot Glue Gun – this is my favorite glue gun.

No-Sew Patriotic Scrap Flag Directions

  • Cut the main red part of the flag into the size you want. I made these flag in 6-inch by 4-inches flags. I wanted a kind of unstructured look so I snipped a small cut the top of the material and then ripped it all the way down the fabric. Then I took the section and snipped it and ripped the other edge.
  • Cut out the smaller blue material. I also ripped the fabric to match the red fabric with the rough edges.
  • Lay the larger piece of fabric on your work surface. Run a line of hot glue down the side of the fabric.
  • Lay the rod along the hot glue line, adhering it to the fabric.
  • Then run a line of glue on top of the rod and roll it toward the flag fabric.
  • Turn the flag over and glue the blue smaller fabric at the top left corner of the flag.
  • Put a small bead of glue at the center of the wood ball and place it on top of the wood rod and hold it there until the hot glue cools.
  • NOTE — To make flags facing the other direction, attach the wood rod on the opposite side of the flag material. I think it looks nice to have flags that face both directions.
