The best gifts are.......homemade!

It's my older sister's birthday shortly.  Last year she had a big birthday party where she received a lot of lovely presents including something nice from me.

This year, however, I decided to make something for her.  She has so much stuff that I was at a loss as to what I should get for her.  So homemade was definitely a better option.

I made her this lovely floral bunting.  She has a large back garden and often holds gatherings in it for family and friends so I think she will certainly have a use for this bunting as garden decoration.

Here it is all packaged up and ready to be given to her.





I wrapped it in cellophane and put a ribbon on it along with a tag that I sewed on my "Handmade By" label.


I'm very happy with how it turned out and hopefully my sister will be happy when she receives it next week!
