Who’s your founding father?

I really don’t believe that the Honda commercial that came out last year around Presidents Day persuaded me to buy a Honda. However, sometimes when I approach my car, I hear that commercial in my mind, even though I think George Washington would disapprove of it. I think that Lincoln, on the other hand, would have appreciated the humor in this ridiculous commercial.

My car is not the only thing that makes me hear that song in my mind. I heard it the first time I laid eyes on some sexy patriotic fabric. Buying this fabric earned me nothing but grief from my boyfriend and that was before he knew I bought three yards of it.

Now, this isn’t the sort of thing I’m willing to wear. I don’t have the confidence to rock it as a dress. A drawstring bag, though, that I can do. So I did using this tutorial.

I love this little bag. Just thinking about it makes me happy.

Now, what to do with the other 2 and a half yards of this fabric….
