  1. So cool. We don't use the word "bunting" in reference to fabric much do we? Is that very British though? Assume so. Keep us posted on the project!

  3. Looks like fun. Also did you ever pick up any knitting? I started on some more dish cloths to entertain my mind while watching tv lately and it made me think of you.

  4. Yes, very British. Its pieces of triangular fabric hung together like a garland. A summer thing, hung outside...taken from Naval bunting/flags. Very cute. No knitting these days, more of a winter thing me thinks- have my scarf still waiting for me!

    Will post the project when its done!

  5. Ah, exactly. My take on "bunting" has always been very light-weight, flag-like pieces of fabric. Didn't know about the tradition of hanging triangle shapes like a garland though ... I love it!
