    TA DA!!! I finished our 4th of July mantel scarf this morning. I started it on Flag Day (Tuesday) and just finished it. Really thought it would take longer! I love mantel scarves...they so dress up the place.

    I got the pattern out of a book last year, but do not know the name of the book (got it from the regional library). It was not difficult (just had to pay attention all the time!) and the quilting is minimal with just enough to make the batting stay in place and make the flags appear to be waving!

    Thanks for looking...

    I love it! And you are so right, mantel scarfs really dress up a room.
