How to make bunting flags
Turn scraps of fabric into a pretty decoration with our quick and easy craft idea for making bunting
Whether you want to liven up your alfresco dining area or add the perfect accessory to your children's room, bunting can be a great finishing touch. Follow our step-by-step guide to making it yourself.
You will need:
* Fabric and thread
* 13mm-wide bias binding tape
* Pinking shears
Step 1: Draw a triangle on some cardboard and cut it out to use as a template; or download, print and cut our bunting template.
Step 2: Pin the template to your fabric and cut around it using pinking shears to avoid fraying. Repeat until you have enough flags.
Step 3: Evenly space the flags along the bias binding tape, folding the shortest edge over, and pin in place.
Step 4: Sew on the flags with a straight stitch, leaving at least 40cm of tape free from flags at each end for hanging.
