Union Jack Scarf

I found it hard at first when I started thinking about how I could put it all together, but when I started to create it I found I have a few problems with the stitching side and the colour of the stitches colours I was going to uses. After I found the colour threads I stared creating it.

Then I decided to start looking at the red and white colours of the Union Jack flag and started with the white, I first started by cutting it and stitching the white fabric then I cut the red fabric smaller than the white and stitched the red fabric on the white to create the stripes.
