Sewing bunting is the best sewing I know. I love it!!
All that colour, those nice easy straight seams, the joining it together into long strips, and the knowing its for a happy occasion. Bunting is always for happy times, and this is for my son and soon-to-be daughter-in-law's wedding in just a few week's time. Eek! did I say a few weeks time! There is so much sewing needs doing!
So I've been cutting...
and sewing.....
and sewing some more....
Saffie kept a very close eye on the proceedings....
The stack got higher...........
I added some solids........
Then played around with the placement........
Then joined them into lengths using rolls of ready made bias binding.
And finally took them outside to have a little peek at what they're going to look like hanging in all their colourful beauty!
A total of 6 lengths, 15 pennants in each. Such a happy sewing day!
Really pretty! My cat always likes to sit and watch over what I am doing too!
