prayer flags

a few of my friends decided to get together and create a prayer flag a month for 2016.  i am not hanging mine outside, but rather, i am going to use them to create valances in my enclosed front porch.  i am excited about them.

this month the theme was "hope" and you had to include a "feather".  


i didn't want a word to be the main focus so i stamped it on my feather.  i like the subtlety of it.  i am happy with how it turned out.
i will be using the same color scheme for all the flags.  all the backs will be muslin, so when people are outside it will look uniform.  i love the shabby look, with all the threads sticking about.  these will be wonderful to use up bits of ribbon and lace i've had stored for years.
i'm excited to make more.
