My First Banner

Another thing I've seen around the web and on Etsy a lot are banners.  And, I think they are just so neat.  I found one the other day on a blog that was all white on white.  She inspired me to finally make my own.  NOW, for the life of me, I can't find her blog or the banner!  I really need to work on the organizing on my computer.  Do you all keep track of ideas and sites in a really organized manner?  Would you like to share the best way to do that?!

I used all old (and stained) linens, pillowcases, and trims.

So, I let a little color in here, because I wanted to....

I used free motion machine embroidery over most of the pieces and put them on a stabilizer.

The clips are hair clips that I spray painted off white and white then glued a button on the top.

A little 'Bliss' was embroidered in....

I tore strips from an old pillowcase then joined them with the sewing machine end to end.  I then crocheted the strip with a length of very pretty white eyelash yarn to create the cord to hang the banners from.

  One of my daughters said, "I like it, I don't get the point of it, but I like it."  

I'm pretty sure there's no point, but I like it too.

Now, I'd like to create seasonal ones to sell in my booth and in my Etsy shop---then there would be a point, a purpose if you will.
