Easter/Spring Bunting...




Can you say LOVE IT!!! I do so much, it make me happy just to look at it. It's bright, its cheerful and when my girls saw it, they were both giddy too.

I used the same concept as my "Lucky" Bunting, but it is slightly different, I used fabric instead of felt for my letters.

Using clip art from my word, I sized letters and a daisy to about 4" x 3" and cut the letters and daisies out of my fun bright fabric I used on my table runner.

Next I ironed my letters onto heat and bond and then attached my fabric letters/daisies to white felt rectangles that are 7" x 5", making sure they were centered.

Next using matching thread I zig zag stitched around each of the letters to make sure it stayed, keep the edges from fraying, and give it a finished look.

To finish off my bunting, I put small cuts in the felt 3/4" in and down on the top corners of the white felt and thread a piece of yellow ribbon with white polk a dots through it.

It is definitely my favorite bunting so far!

Easter Table Runner...


I love the idea of my table runner for Easter, but wish it was bigger. It works for my small table, but I will definitely need a bigger one on a new table.

This was an easy project, and definitely totally different from my last two.

I drew a giant egg to use as a pattern and cut out two of each color. I then sewed right sides together, turned right side out, pressed and top stitched. To connect the eggs together I just used fabritac to avoid more stitching lines.
