So....I've had this done for about 3 years now but I forgot to take a picture of it before I framed it. So I gave this to my husband when he graduated from West Point (at the time he was just my boyfriend). It isn't easy to tell since it's framed and behind glass but this has a tassel on it going down the side of the flag.

It also took me about 5 years or so to do. I finished it in 2010 then I had to find a frame I liked. My mom helped me with that and my dad helped me frame it after I ironed it out. So it was a team effort

I don't remember the number of colors or the finished dimensions since I currently can't find the pattern for it. I'll update it once I do.

Problems:

Where to start?! Well, besides my normal frustration of twisted threads, knots, I realized when I was almost done with the sunset part that I used the wrong colors in spots which caused me to be short later. Thankfully no one can really tell so I'm okay with it!

I also had never made a tassel before so I was afraid I was going to mess it up but I like it! I'll try to take a close up shot of it later since I'm so happy with how it came out. XD
