Paper Pennants
Materials needed are:
- Card stock, cut into squares
- Rotary Cutter
- Ruler
- Coordinating thread
Steps:
- Using a ruler and rotary blade, cut each square in half along the diagonal, resulting in two right triangles.
- Arrange your flags in the order you choose. The length is determined on the amount of flags you have. Stack them from top to bottom by starting with the first flag at the top and ending with the final flag at the bottom.
- Set your machine to a larger stitch length around the length you would need to baste. Pull the thread ends from your machine, leaving approximately a foot of slack thread at the end to use for hanging. Align the right triangle’s long edge.
- Repeat this technique until you have stitched all the way through your pennants and be mindful to leave an extra foot of thread at the end for hanging when you get to the end.
- Scrapbooking scissors may also be used to add charming scallops or pinking to the short ends of the triangles, or letter stickers can be used.
Yarn Garlands
Materials needed are:
- Bulky variegated yarn
- Jute twine
- Scissors
Steps:
- Calculate how long you want the yarn strands to hang on the garland and cut a piece twice as long. To make 20 strips of similar length, cut the yarn at the top and bottom of the cardboard using scissors.
- If you are using variegated yarn then you might want to arrange the strips out in a row to keep the color pattern consistent.
- Cut a strand of twine the same length as the garland and begin tying on the yarn one piece at a time. Pinch the yarn in half, then fold over the top of the twine, pulling the ends through.
- Add more strands and repeat the process with each strand.
It is a simple, thoughtless procedure, but it might take some time.
