Patriotic Wand (Free Pattern)

One of sweet girl's gifts was a mama made patriotic wand.

The husband thought I was crazy.  He didn't think she'd be into a wand.

But she loves it!  She has carried it for hours!

I think Family Fun posted a version of these ages ago.  PATTERN HERE.  You can make it out of paper, ribbon and a dowel or do as I did, and use felt.  I made mine double sided, but you also could just do one side.

Mine is hand stitched, but you can use a machine. I stitched white onto red, red onto blue and then sewed the two sides together, leaving a gap at the bottom.  I hot glued 8 inch ribbons onto a 12 inch dowel.  Then I hot glued the felt onto the stick.  Easy!
