An idea for an immediate fundraising project: why not create strips of blue and yellow bunting for people to buy and display in support of the Ukrainian people, using the funds raised to support refugee projects locally or with our sister Clubs in Eastern Europe?
Wouldn’t it be great to see lots of front windows decorated in support of Ukraine? Don’t forget to do a PFRF!
Making instructions:
- Materials required: Yellow and blue cotton or polycotton is recommended. You can get about 100 flags from 1m of 1.5m width of material. Bias binding – 2m for 10 flags
- Create a template – recommended 12cm x 15cm
- Fold material in half and use the template to mark cutting lines
- Use pinking shears to cut out
- Pin flags into fold of bias binding. Leave about 6cm between each one. 10 flags for 2m stretch.
- Stitch all the way along the bias binding.
