I saw a flag pillow on Pinterest that I wanted for my front porch chair. Since it was going outside I didn't want to spend any money or too much time on it.. So...I got out my glue gun. First I sewed a rectangle shape from osnaburg ( thick muslin like fabric.) I cut a small rectangle from navy fabric and glued it to the top left corner..Then I used some red and white fabrics that I cut in strips and glued on like stripes. 
After I got all the stripes on I cut another navy rectangle and glued it over the first so it stood out more. I cut 4 stars from the white fabric and glued them on. The whole thing took about 40 minutes start to finish.
I need a nice white wicker chair to sit this pillow on.. I am determined to find one at an estate sale or garage sale !
love this chicken planter ..I got it at the Kane county fairgrounds flea market last year.
Thanks for coming by !

Priscilla, I saw that on on pinterst board! How darling is that! You know I am going to be firing up the ol' glue gun this weekend, and rifle through my scraps for fabric to do this too. I even have osnaburg!!! Too darn cute!! Good luck on finding the wicker!!! It will happen!!!
Great work! Love your flowers and the beautiful afghan in previous post.
This is adorable! I can't believe you glued it all together! I love a good no-sew project. :)
Love your flag pillow everything looks beautiful
That is adorable, Priscilla--and what a fantastic idea to use a glue gun!! Even I could handle this one, I think :)
Stopping by from the Sew Darn Crafty Link Park. What a cute pillow and so quick to do!

Hi Priscilla,
I found your blog through Barbara at Made in K-Town and now I'm a follower. I love your flag pillow! How clever to glue on the scraps instead of sewing! I can't sew but I can work a glue gun. If you'd like to visit my blog, it's sssinthesun.blogspot.com.
Blessings,
