A New Flag for the Backyard.

I was feeling rather angry with myself for not accomplishing more in the past month or so.  Not really beating myself up but just disappointed that I didn't have more accomplished.  It's not like I just stood around doing nothing...or did I ? ? ?
 
I completed this little flag yesterday.  I would have posted the picture of the one it replaced, but I'm too embarrassed.  I'm sure that it's been flying every summer on that pole for the past 5 years.  It was faded, tattered and I think a spider made a nest in one corner of it and crapped all over it as well.
 
This is from a Kim Schaeffer book.  The original pattern was for a table runner or a place mat, but I just spun the ends and make an elongated flag out of it. 
 
Since watermelon is my favorite food on the planet, it seemed fitting for summer!
