Hello my lovely Jennie,
This is a post I've written for you to see what you think about the 'string' on your bunting..
Ok. Here goes...
I've done a mock up for you with two of the flags to try and give you an idea what the string will look like..
These are the flags with the white twill across the top..
Obviously it looks brighter on the candy stripe fabric than the rose in bloom fabric...
Below is the cream coloured shop bias binding...
Below are the flags with the vintage cotton tape that I mostly use...
It does look a more sepia tint in real life..
Below is the bias binding that I made form a strip of fabric that you sent wrapped around some fabric..
It's made beautiful binding..
and does go beautifully with the flags..
But I thought I'd let you have a looksie and see before I attached it, as you may/may not have a preference....
I'm easy, and I'll make whichever you would like, or think Sophie would like :o)
Or I'll choose, and do a surprise for you ;o)
Now, i also have quite a bit of the fabric left.
Would you like me to :
a) Send it back in the parcel with all your goodies?
b) Keep it here to make something that you may want for Sophie/you in the future?
c) Make Sophie a matching patchwork cushion cover?
d) Make a surprise?
e) Just keep it safe?
Again totally up to you. But if you'd like a cushion cover or something else made, I'll send it after this parcel, otherwise you're never going to get your birthday present or bunting my lovely! ;o)
I do hope this post is helpful to you, and I haven't shown you all the bunting so that you can be surprised when I send it...obviously unless you'd like me to show you it all?
Anyway, that's it for now..
Below is a rose that's in the garden and I photographed for you this morning to celebrate the last day of you be 42 years old ;o)...
Have a lovely last 42years day Jennie. xxOOxx
