Flag Day Banner Tutorial With Anita

Hi Everyone:

Happy Flag Day.  Anita here with a banner that you can use for Flag Day as well as for the Fourth of July, Memorial Day and any other day that you want to celebrate our great country.  I used several different cut files of Lori’s to create this banner.

Happy Birthday Banner – 2   SVG,  Silhouette
Layered Pinwheel     SVG,  Silhouette
3D Lori Whitlock Spiral Flower   SVG,  Silhouette
5X7 Box Card 4th of July   SVG , Silhouette
American Flag   SVG,  Silhouette
3D USA Décor Blocks   SVG, Silhouette

I love mix and matching Lori’s cut files to create new projects.  I am going to show you how I prepared the fabric for cutting in my Silhouette machine. 

Here are the supplies that I used for this project.  Terial Magic is a wonderful product that comes in a spray bottle and you can get it on Amazon or at your local quilt shop.  I sprayed the fabric liberally and checked the back side to make sure that it was soaked on both sides.  I hung the pieces on my shower rod  to let them drip to just damp.  I recommend you put something under where you hang the fabric so that it doesn’t make a mess.  It’s sticky, and rubber gloves might have been helpful to use as well.

 

Here is a photo of the fabric as I was in the process of ironing it.  You can see the bottom left looks still darker and wet and the right part is done and the fabric feels like paper.  I ironed my fabric on a towel to absorb any extra of the Terial Magic Fabric Stabilizer.

You can see how this fabric stands up once it is ironed.

I used the strong grip mat from Cricut and a brayer to make sure that the fabric didn’t move.  You will want to slow down your cutter in addition to choosing fabric as your material to be cut.

I laid out the blocks to see how they would look and switched around the banners and embellishments.

Earlier in the week on Tuesday we had our June blog hop and I have included a photo with the quilt block centerpiece and the banner that I made.  I am going to put this out for the 4th of July.

Hugs,

Anita
