Tutorial - How to Make Upcycled Denim Bunting

Easy to adapt the design for other flags too

Tutorial at Pillar Box Blue Blog

"It feels like ages since I’ve upcycled anything with denim, my last denim post was my scrap denim Easter eggs. I do have some denim upcycling projects in the pipeline but I thought I’d show you how to make some fabulous flag upcycled denim bunting.   I’m participating in a Junk Visionaries monthly challenge and the theme is patriotic. The upcycled denim bunting I originally made was Union Jack bunting, but as most of my blog audience is American I’ve also made a Stars and Stripes version just for you ! It was quite easy to adapt my flag bunting design from Union Jack to Stars and stripes as they are both red white and blue".... Read more

Tutorial - Make a Reusable Vinyl Bunting Holder

Change out bunting for the season or a special occasion

Tutorial at Fleur de Lis Quilts Blog

"Some time ago I decided to make a bunting as decoration for a party.  Once I began thinking about it, I felt guilty about making something for a one-time event.  After all, sustainability is an important ideal for most of us--not use and toss.  I decided to make a clear plastic bunting that could hold paper or fabric designs.  Those designs could be changed out for the seasons or events as needed.  To make this bunting, you'll need several sheets of regular copy paper for the pattern, clear table covering, and enough double-fold bias tape in the length you want"....

Tutorial - Make a Valentine's Day Fabric Garland

Includes time-saver steps for a cute bunting

Tutorial at Sew for Soul Blog

"As Alice and I walked to school yesterday, she suddenly asked if I would make her some Valentine's Day bunting as presents for her friends.  "How many sets are we talking about?", I asked, "Nine" came the reply.  So I had a day to stitch seventy-two pennants and attach them to over ten metres of bias-binding.  "No Problem", I told her and quickly raced home to get started. Now normally when I make bunting banners I like to take my time, in particular I hand-sew the bias-binding down so there is no visible stitching on the tape when viewed from the right side.  Today there was no chance!  Instead, here's a cheat's guide to speedy bunting making"....

Tutorial at Cocojude Blog

Tutorial - How to Make a Halloween Bunting

A great project to use up scraps

BuntingTutorial at Hope and Gloria Blog

"Spiders and their stunning webs are the inspiration for this Halloween sewing idea. Easy to make and effective it will look great draped across a window, wall or doorway on 31st October. For part of this project I used burlap (also known as hessian). I wanted to give the bunting a folk art feel rather than using the traditional oranges and blacks found in most Halloween decorations and I have seen burlap used in folk art Christmas Decorations with great effect. Burlap can be tricky to work with - you need to be careful not to fray the edges as you work but the end results are fab giving the decorations a rustic feel".... Read more

Bunting from Cards Tutorial at Maker*land Blog

"I've been on a bit of a cleaning rampage (yes!
