A half fan flag pennant is a popular decoration for all patriotic holidays like the 4th of July, Veterans Day, Memorial Day, and Election Day. With the colorful strips, the complicated collection of folds and curves, bunting looks can be tricky. It is necessary to use a suitable pair of scissors and sewing machine and make this project possible. However, in the case of the funeral bunting flag, the process remains the same, only there are certain parameters that you need to follow in order to make such a bunting flag.
It is necessary to decide the width of the funeral pennant. This is the number on which the base of the dimension depends. For example, if you want 30 inches wide, then 30 should be the base number. Therefore, the width of the panel should be half the base number. 15 should be the width of the panel. On the other hand, the length of the panel must also be the same.
The fabric strips can be easily divided between the width of the panel. For example, if the width of the panel is approximately 15 inches wide, there will be five 3-inch-wide strips, and that equals one 15-inch panel. You should also add an inch of seam allowance to each of the strips. So in this example, you can cut five 4-inch-wide strips. All the color of the strips will sum up the sense of design.
Let all the strips lay in a nice pattern and decide which way you can sew them. You can sew each of the strips to the adjoining strips which will allow for at least a half inch seam. Fold all sides of the resulting panel and then fold the edge under a quarter inch and then sew a seam along the fold that will join the edges.
Place the panel on the ironing board and press all the seams so that they lie flat. You can flip the panel over so that the right side remains up. You can find the number to divide the panel instrument into equal sections and this time it will be the length. The panel is 45 inches long and each 5 inch section will work separately. For best results, you can even try 4 to 7 inches.
All panels should be sprayed to create sharp folds for funeral pennant flags. One side should be folded with a mark of exactly 5 inches. You can use the iron to create a sharp crease at this point. The fabric should be folded to the side of the panel. This should continue until the fold is done and the entire length of the panel has finally been folded.
The folded fans can then be attached with the children and all the layers can be folded into position. This will help the needle get through and the threads can be inserted as far as possible, thus completing a funeral pennant.
