Buntings...

The other day a friend and I were

wandering through a thrift/upcycle shop

and she spotted a fun bunting.

She asked if I thought I could make a string for her,

and that's all it took.

The funny thing is,

I was looking at something on line on Thursday and was lead

to this tutorial on a quick and easy way to make buntings or

pennants as they are called in the tutorial.

The tutorial called for using 10" squares,

but I had some left-over 6 1/2" squares from my solid baby quilt.

I pulled some fun polka dots from my stash,

cut those into 6 1/2" squares

and started to sew.

These went together in no time.

I didn't have the twill tape mentioned in the tutorial,

so I just used some 1/4" ribbon I had here.

 

How fun are these?

I'm going to my friends' for dinner tomorrow

and will take these as a hostess gift.

Happy Weekend!
