I seem to be having a bit of a run on bunting, probably because it is quick and easy to do inbetween other jobs.
I've been meaning to use some of my threadbare and ageing table cloths and tray covers for ages and bunting seemed a lovely way to add new life to something old.
Here is the vintage linen bunting with a few embellishments added, buttons, ribbons, beads etc and newly listed on Folksy.
Had a bit of Folksy success selling my alternative Jubilee bunting overnight.
Have a good weekend everyone, I've got a noisy and expensive exhaust to sort out tomorrow!

Jubilee makes, bunting etc.
Some weeks ago I was asked if I'd like a stall at a craft fair in June which turns out to be the Jubilee weekend and the fair is having a Jubilee theme. I decided I would only do one craft fair this summer so this is the one. (Date: June 4th, Location: Kirkella, E. Yorks, Times: not known yet)
I'm not hugely into Jubilee or Royal things but I thought if I didn't have any red white & blue bunting then I might look a bit of a party pooper! Seeing as I had some stripey fabric in my stash I made some bunting, which then lead to making some party favour bags. However, I thought by the time I'm doing the craft fair people won't want the Jubilee stuff then so I've listed it on my Folksy shop. If I don't sell anything on the run up then I can always take it to the fair.
Here's my bunting:
These are the little fabric gift bags I made:
I then made some bunting which is probably more me and that is my Alternative Jubilee Steam Punk bunting.... Never Mind the Jubilee! Inspired a tad by Vivienne Westwood.
I notice that I made it onto the front of Folksy Best of British page today with the bunting, yippee.
