I’m not one for jumping on the bandwagon, but I’ve resisted
making bunting for too long!
Of course, I had to give it more of a personal touch. No
floral, pastels or chevrons for me, oh no!
Instead, I’ve got punky bunting…punkting?
Bunting seemed like a scrap-busting project, and my scraps
supplies consisted of a lot of plaid, vinyl and skull-print! So punk-inspired
bunting seemed like the obvious choice.
I was incredibly lazy with making this too...
I cut out the pieces...
...pinned them to some leftover tape/ribbon (I made it
one-sided...like I said, lazy!)…
…sewed all the pieces on and customised with safety pins, fabric paint and eyelets
I cut the fabric out using my rotary cutter. The woven
fabrics fray, but (asides from my chronic laziness that day) I felt that using
pinking shears or hemming two pieces together would detract from the messy,
punky image!
In the process of making this, I discovered how difficult it
is to photograph bunting! Especially when outside – the only ‘big’ space
suitable – the weather is wet and windy...
