Vintage Sheet Bunting

I just love buntings, garlands, what ever you want to call them, I love them!  And I think before I started blogging, I never even really thought about making them.

 

I found a vintage sheet straight out of the 1970s—orange and pink and of course a stripe of avocado green.  I thought at first I wanted to use it and some others to make a quilt from them…but the more I looked at it I found a few signs of wear, and I didn’t want to spend time on a quilt made from fabric that might not hold up to wear.  I use my quilts, so I only use fabrics that will hold up to washing and daily wear.  

So I thought I would use these two sheets to make some buntings…very easy, all I did was cut the triangles…and then sew a pieces of extra wide double fold bias tape at the top, tucking the top of the triangle inside the tape.

Now that’s easy, green (reusable) and great party décor!
