Marilou hand wrote her information on the back of each flag.
She also did the same technique as earlier discussed with Linda Kunsman's flags -
She made the fabric a longer length so the extra fabric acted as a lining (see below).
Then, Marilou did something rather special for me which really touched my heart.
She apologized for "borrowing" a photo from my blog . . . but I did not mind.
With this photo Marilou created a very special flag for me in memory of my dad. He passed away October 1, 2011.
I will admit I cried when I saw it . . . but that is okay. It is part of the process of losing him. I will gladly hang this flag along with the many others made for me (thank you all) and some I have made myself!! I have not even gotten a chance to show you yet -but soon. Three for the swap and some extra for me, made while I was in Canada. I have 3 more sets of flags for the swap here from Laura Hummel, Jo Johnson and Jewels Oman which I should be uploading tomorrow -- and then I will be caught up (for now) - yippeee! I will share my own flags after uploading those 3 sets and wait for more sets to come in. Remember to check on the participation List to see if your package has arrived. I will write received as they come in so even if I do not get to upload them right away you can be assured that your flags have made it to me. They must be in my mailbox on or before the 15th of September.
It's my pleasure to host this swap -hope you are enjoying the incoming!
(3 sets were uploaded today)
