Waving American Flag Blanket: Stars and Stripes Throw

Waving American Flag Blanket shows a rippling Stars and Stripes design that covers the whole throw, with the blue field and its white stars sweeping into the red and white bands. Nothing is printed on it besides the flag itself, so the picture does all the talking. It suits anyone who wants to wrap up in the flag on a patriotic holiday or a quiet evening at home.

The print at a glance

The blue field sits in the upper left corner, dotted with white stars arranged in staggered rows. Those stars run diagonally across the print, following the curve of the cloth. Beside them, the red and white stripes ripple out toward the lower right, with soft gray shadows along the folds that make the flag look like it has just caught a breeze. Nothing is painted on top of the flag, so the eye moves straight from the stars to the stripes. The effect is bold without being busy, and the wave gives the flag a sense of motion even when the blanket is lying still on a sofa. Every part of the design is carried edge to edge, so wherever you fold it, the flag keeps its shape and its colors.

Who it is for

Veterans and their families often notice this flag first, because the stars and stripes read clearly from across a room. Anyone who loves the flag and wants to show it at home will feel it was made for them. You might spread it over your knees during a Fourth of July parade on television, or drape it over the back of a couch on Veterans Day. It also works for road trips to patriotic events and for quiet moments when you want to feel close to the flag without saying a word.

Occasions to use it

This throw fits right into Fourth of July gatherings, Memorial Day weekends and Veterans Day ceremonies. It is also a thoughtful gift for Flag Day or for a retirement party where the honoree has served. Choose from the Fleece Throw Blanket, Sherpa Throw Blanket, Fleece Blanket or Sherpa Blanket styles depending on how you plan to use it, whether that is a cozy wrap for movie nights or a bright backdrop for a holiday photo.
