>>> hand.
>>>
>>> 2. Fold the top down on each piece of fabric, stitch in place to create
>>> a 3″ sleeve, making the flag surface 5″ × 8″.
>>>
>>> 3. Paint, stitch, applique, or collage the flags.
>>>
>>> 4. Add words, journaling, or symbols as desired.
>>>
>>> 5. Thread the flags onto a string/ cord and hang them outdoors so the
>>> breeze will catch them and spread your intentions.
>>>
>>> Make a flag every day, once a month, or just when the spirit moves you.
>>>
>>> Any questions let me know.  Hope to see some prayer flags.
