Tutorial: Valentine Card Bunting (From Feb. 2010)
A couple of years ago, I bought a book of reproduction vintage valentines. I love them so much I don't want to give them all the way, but I also want to be able to enjoy them. So...I've made some bunting using some extra wide bias tape.
This would also be a fun way to collect and display valentines that you receive from friend and loved ones. You could create a strand of valentines each year (post Valentine's Day) and then hang them in your children's rooms.
MATERIALS:
- Valentine cards
- Extra wide double bias tape
Step 1: Lay out your cards in the order that you want them to appear. Then, stack them, keeping them in order.
Step 2: Using a zig-zag stitch, begin sewing the tail. (I made mine about a 7" tail).
Step: 3: Sandwich your first valentine between the bias tape and continue sewing.
Step 4: Continue placing valentines between the tape and sew all your cards, leaving a tail at the end.
