The band playing. The crowds cheering and in unison we would sing the National Anthem. Even at 16 I felt privilege flow through me on those nights.

Yes. Our freedom is a privilege and I,m so thankful for it.

Heavy with smiles, naps, water parks and good food the summer has my heart. This little pillow is just icing on my lemon cake.

Decorative Patriotic Pillow Cover Directions:

  1. To make this DIY patriotic pillow use some scrap fabric from your closet…old jeans, neckties, scarves or bandannas.
  2. Cut a 12 X 12 square of base fabric. (I used an old sheet)This decorative DIY patriotic pillow cover is perfect for your summer decor, plus it's perfect for a quick seasonal pillow change on a budget.  #easyDIYpillows #decorativepillows #fourthofjulypillow #4thofjulydecorations #scrapfabricproject #patrioticdecor
  3. Rip long stripes of your decorative fabric. 
  4. Stamp or stencil the center of your 12 X 12 base with USA…or any other word or phrase you love. I used stamps and fabric paint from A Maker’s Studio.
  5. Lay out your fabric strips then pin in place or glue them down. I used fabric glue to hold mine in place.

  6. Sew on your strips by going up and down across the strips. This is not intended to look perfect so it’s a great project for a not so great sew-er like me! I love the loose feel of the design on this pillow.
