INSTRUCTIONS

1 Create a template for the pennants out of cardboard or cardstock by drawing a triangle that measures 61/2 inches (16.5 cm) across the base and 61/2 inches (16.5 cm) tall.

2 Layer two pieces of fabric together. The colour combinations I chose were: red/black, orange/ white, yellow/blue, green/pink, light green/brown.

3 Trace templates onto each pair of fabrics and cut out at least three pennants for each combination.

4 Sew along two sides of each triangle with a 1/4-inch (6.35 mm) seam allowance, leaving the base of the triangles open.

5 Turn pennants right-side out and press.

6 Sew openings closed using a zigzag stitch.

7 Cut hook-and-loop tape into small rectangles, measuring about 1/4 inch (6.35 mm) by 1/2 inch (12.7 mm). Adhere four of the softer “loop” pieces to the top corners of each pennant, two on the front and two on the back. Unfold the bias tape, and adhere the rougher “hook” pieces, using the pennants as a guide for placement. The goal is to be able to sandwich the pennants inside the folded bias tape, with the hook-and-loop tape holding them in place.
