Cutting out

Fabrics 1-18:

  • two pennants of each fabric as per drawing
Fabric 19:
  • 6 strips, 110 x 3.8 cm each

Instructions

Embroidering the pennants
 
Use the following motifs to embroider the fabrics as desired:

  • wimpel_sweet.art (sweet pennant)
  • wimpel_dreams.art (dreams pennant)
  • wimpel_krone.art (crown pennant)
  • wimpel_vogel.art (bird pennant)
  • quilt_wimpel_schmetterling.art (butterfly quilt pennant)
  • quilt_wimpel_nr1.art (quilt pennant no. 1)
 
Sewing the pennants
 
Cut out the pennants. With right sides facing sew together two pennants of the same colour in each case (fabrics 1 – 17), leaving the top side open for turning. Turn right side out. Sew diamond A's together as desired but in such way that the finished piece is large enough to cut out two pennants. With right sides facing, sew each of the two diamond-pieced pennants together with a pennant of fabric 18, then turn right side out. Neaten all seams well. Press pennants.
 
Stringing the pennants
 
Sew one long strip of the strips of fabric 19, joining them with diagonal seams. Press seam allowances apart. Sew the pennants to the strip using the binder, leaving a sufficiently long bit of strip at both ends to serve as ties for hanging the garland up.  
 
The dimensions given for all cotton fabrics refer to a fabric width of 110 cm.
