Simple to sew valentine banner

This banner was sewn by my sister-in-law and hangs on their mantle in Colorado. I also love the vintage wool ice skates she found at a thrift store, hanging above the banner. Together it’s the prefect seasonal display of Valentine happiness.

To make the banner she created her own bias tape, using fabric, for the ribbon top. She cut out the letters by hand and sewed them, with a zigzag stitch, on to the triangles. The triangles were cut using zigzag scissors with the edges left unfinished.
