With all the excitement of making new protective storage
options for large artifacts, Linda threw us another curve ball; a large flag.
This piece was too big to fit into any kind of tubing. So how are we going to
protect this artifact and others like it from collecting dust?
Answer Key: We sewed a cover for the
flag!
We started with a large piece of unbleached muslin that wouldn't
cause any harm to the artifact.
We then measured to eliminate wasted material and used an embroidering
stitch to make a fabric cylinder. This fit snugly around the rolled flag. Finally
we tied together each end like giant tootsie roll to allow easy access if the
artifact is needed.
