DIY Summer Burlap Nautical Banner.

You could use any patterns you like but these are the ones I used. (Cookie cutters work great for patterns.)

*Sail Boat
*Seahorse
*Anchor
*Starfish
*Helm

You need only four if you follow this banner.

Trace nautical patterns onto the fusible web paper. Then iron shapes onto the backside of material and cut out. Then remove the paper and iron to the natural batting.

The Burlap Banner

I just cut out burlap triangles and zigzagged around the edges because burlap unravels. Make them to the size you like. Mine are 9 1/2 x 9 1/2 x 9 1/2.

I strung them on a piece of jute about 54 inches long and I tied loops at the ends so I could hang on my candlestick stands.

I used small clothes pins to hang them from the triangles of burlap.

Supplies needed:

*Homespun material or material of your choice
*Fusible Webbing
*Embroidery Floss to match your material
*Needle
*Natural Batting
*Brad or Bead for the Seahorse Eye
*Awl to poke hole if you want to use a Brad
*Thin Hemp for Bow on Anchor
*Iron
*Scissors
*Glue Gun to attach Eye Bead and the Bow

Natural Batting

Patterns cut out and ironed to the Natural Batting and then roughly cut out.

Blanket Stitch around each pattern piece you can find a tutorial here thepurlbee

Awl and thin Hemp

Blanket Stitch around each material pattern with Embroidery Floss. Add the Eye to Seahorse and Thin Hemp Bow to Anchor.

Finished Banner.

You can find seahorse pattern here crafty ideas

The sail boat pattern is just a basic boat pattern I made and the others are from a project I made from a table runner pattern from CVC but they are no longer in business. So I don’t have a link to give you their pattern. I adjusted their patterns from what theirs looked like.

I made a Spring/Easter Banner you can find here springbanner

Enjoy.
