"Country Folk Art flag "woven on a hand loom as shown in this listing with tapestry technique and plain weave strips of wool on a cotton yarn base. My original design I wove a rod pocket at the top on the back for hanging the flag with a half inch to one inch dowel. the bottom edge is hemmed I have woven many of these flags . I was featured in "Country Living " magazine with this flag back in 2004 Hand weaving has been my vocation most of my adult life I never get tired of the possibilities of hand making something out of a few strands of yarn and cloth. Self taught I also show in this listing a picture of one of my flags in a summer cottage To take care of this piece I recommend shaking it out and brushing . measures 10 inches high by 15 inches long ********** You will love this flag ************* I use recycled wool to create this

For Handwoven Cotton Recycled Rag RugI received the rug from Phyllis, but the colors didn't go in my kitchen. I asked her if I could send it back and she said yes but was not happy. I sent it back right away with 2-day delivery. I never heard from her or saw a refund. I sent her an email on 2/10 asking her to let me know the status and still have not heard from her or seen a refund.
