I was looking for a sewing project to do today and came across all these felt and fabric flowers I cut ages ago using my cuttlebug.
So I decided I would make another wreath, I cut circles from felt and made them into spiral flowers to add a bit of depth and interest.
I used lots of buttons and stickles as highlights.
Hope you like it.
Ive been wanting to make some bunting for ages and finally got around to doing it this week.
I cut a triangle template at 4.75″ x 4.75″ using the pazzles. The fabric is a scrap bag of Moda material, but because the scraps are various widths i cut strips of all the different samples into lengths of about 2ft and sewed two strips together to give me enough width to use the template.
I sewed two triangles together right sides facing using a 1/4″ seem, turned them the right side out and pressed them.
I used bought bias binding which is about 1″ wide folded it in half and sandwiched the triangle inside it.
I used a decorative flower design just for a bit of extra detail.
This bunting is over 16ft long so Ive taken a photo of it just draped over the toy box and another close up.
Its for our craft room in our new house when we move later in the year.
Well here it is all finished and I have to say I love it. I have used zig zag stitching as my main quilting and a wavy line stitching down the long sides.
This is shown here on top of the toy box I painted recently and its for our new craft room when we move.
I chose the stripe originally and matched all the other colours with the help of the lady in the shop, it has all the colours of our crafting equipment in it.
