Fabric for buntings?

Postby grizle » Sat Oct 22, 2011 5:16 pm

I was planning on making buntings to decorate the kids bedrooms. What i want to know is roughly how much fabric it requires to make them? I would hate to get one half made and run out of a particular fabric :lol:

Depends how big you make the flags? Are you doing triangles or half ovals?

Cut them out and pin them up first, then you can add another fabric and space them out if there's not enough?
