Fall Fabric Bunting Flags Pattern

I stood there staring at the mantel thinking, “it’s missing something”. But what?

It needed to be something simple but that could add some color, texture and fast enough to get done in an hour or less.

And it hit me, what about a quick fabric bunting flags project. I love paper bunting, but fabric would store better and give some great texture to the mantel.

Plus, fabric bunting is a super simple way to decorate for each season. You can use this same pattern and create bunting for Christmas, birthdays, even Valentine’s Day.

Throw in some matching fall pillow covers and you’ve got an entire room ready for the season.
