Themed, rainbow or Christmas it's your choice and could make a lovely gift too!
For this project you'll need to decide how many flags you need and what fabrics you want to use.Woven cottons are best because they don't stretch.
You will also need some Bias binding tape or ribbon in the length that you want to make.
You can draft your own template and follow these instructions.Or I have PDF templates available in small and large with a matching 'Party Bag' to keep them safe.
Once you have all your materials ready
LET'S GET SEWING
1 CUT all your flags x 2
At this point you can embellish or applique your flags with lettering or detail.
See my Applique Lettering Templates HERE
2 Lay each flag set together RST (right sides together)
3 SEW down sides and base, pivoting at the point.
4 TRIM corners and point
5 REPEAT for all flags
6 Time to STRING your flags using a bias binding or ribbon tape.
In the photos I am using a pre-folded bias tape.
7 FOLD your tape in half length ways and sandwich your flags in.
Distribute your flags evenly by measuring and pin to secure.
Or add flags in as you sew but be sure to measure!
8 TOPSTITCH the binding catching your flags in
NOW LETS PARTY!
When you are finished with your bunting keep it safe in a made to measure bunting bag. Instructions for this are included in my template docs.
