Beavercreek Adult Take-and-Make: Felt Banner

Hi Crafty Gang!

This month's project is a spring felt banner!  It's super simple to make and doesn't take too long.

Included in your kit:

Strips of felt in spring colors

Ribbon

NOT included in your kit:

scissors

glue or sewing machine

Instructions:

1.  Cut the strips of felt into triangles.  They don't have to be perfect.  I just cut diagonally until the end of the strip.
2. Decide how you're going to attach the triangles.  You can use glue - something like Elmer's or Tacky Glue.  Or you can sew them together.  I used a sewing machine and overlapped the edges of the triangles just enough to attach them.  See below.  If you glue, I would just put a dot where the triangles overlap. 
3. Lastly, attach the ribbon on the ends.  Cut the provided ribbon in half.  You'll see in the picture that I used a thicker ribbon and it wasn't as easy to hang with the wider size.  Once you've cut the ribbon in half, either glue or sew it onto the end of the last triangle on either side.  See below.  The final length should be between 14' and 15'.
4. Hang and enjoy!

As always, we'd love to see your finished project!  You can post it to our facebook page here:  https://www.facebook.com/BeavercreekCommunityLibrary

Happy spring, everyone!  See you next month!
