DIY Embroidered Bunting Banner

One of the things my kids love about fall is decorating for Halloween. They love to design their costumes to have me sew for the school parade. I wanted to incorporate some sewing into our new home's Halloween decor and these cute designs from OESD were just what I was looking for to create this simple bunting banner. Create your own Halloween banner in no time with the steps below. 

Supplies:

• OESD's Trick or Treat Collection
• 1/2 yd medium weight woven fabric
• various embroidery thread 
• Heavy Weight TearAway
• 2 yds cording/twine/ribbon
• Brother SE600 Sewing and Embroidery Machine
• rotary cutters or scissors

DIY Tutorial:

Cut as many rectangles as you'd like. Mine measured 6x8 inches.

Embroider away using the Brother SE600 Sewing and Embroidery Machine.

Fold the top edge over 1/2 an inch and top stitch along the raw edge to create a casing for your cording.

Fold each rectangle in half and use your rotary cutters to cut from midpoint to the outer edge. My midpoint went up about 1". You can then hem the edges or choose to keep them raw like I did.

Use a safety pin attached to the end of your cording and weave through the casing of each piece.

Very simple project to do and I love the vintage inspired look over the banter. I'm going to try the freestanding skeleton next.
