There'll Always Be An England ......


.... or in my case, there'll always be a copycat!!
Yes, I must admit to a bit of blatant copying here.
As soon as I saw some Union Jack bunting made with the stamp
from the Artistic Outpost set, I just had to make some of my own!


The bunting is so easy to make - I love it!!!
Full credit to
for this wonderful idea!

I used faded denim from some old jeans of mine to back the little flags on.
I rubber stamped the image onto white cotton fabric
using acrylic paint directly onto the stamp and spritzing with a little
water just before stamping.


I machine stitched the flags onto the denim backing fabric
and used seam binding to stitch them together.
It couldn't be easier!


I made some more in girly colours and added buttons to the centres.


Here's a peek at the back.

All I need now is another Royal Wedding,
I'd really go bunting mad then - LOL.


Thanks for looking :)
