Remember the Curves Class I signed up for? One of the first week's projects was this scallop bunting. I chose this project mainly because it was the quickest & required the least amount of shopping for extra supplies {time and money were both in short order about the time class started}
But honestly, bunting really doesn't do much for me. I had a hard time deciding on fabrics, thinking that I wasn't going to want to hang this up when it was done, and I didn't know anyone I could gift it to. It crossed my mind to make a Christmas version, but I didn't have enough Christmas fabrics left. And besides, I really need a break from Christmas ;)
I thought about a baby girl version, with a specific new little one in mind, but I wasn't sure if the parents would want to hang it up in their nursery.
{ideally, I would have vacuumed before taking pictures. but if I waited for the ideal situation, I'd never get anything done. so please pardon my dirty carpet} :)
Anyway, I went stash shopping, and somewhere in between fabric flying out of drawers/cubbies/bags etc I found my little bundle of Halloween fabric. Perfect!
These were set aside for a quilt, but I don't think using these little bits will mess up those plans much {we won't mention how long these fabrics have been waiting to be turned into a quilt. Or that I ended up prewashing 9 yards of fabric for a project that needed 2 FQs}
my 7 year old helped sew the final stitches on the double fold bias binding, and our first Halloween decoration is currently hanging in the living room! :)
I love when a project turns out so much better than I anticipated!

Sometimes we just make stuff because we want to make stuff. And sometimes we make stuff because we need to learn a new technique.

To get the best product type never make your choice with first product or store you
see, but you should check several fishing kayaks for sale and try to get
appropriate offer. Some fishermen just take a rod and a few lures along and others like to bring
lots of gear along. Best of all, a kayak will cost a
fraction of the price of the average fishing boat.
