burlap "be mine" banner

mmk.  i've been seeing projects with burlap EVERYWHERE, and needed to give it a try.  i'm loving all of those banners floating around, so that's what i decided on.  i basically "winged it"...i hope this makes sence!

Supplies:
burlap
paint
paper towel
paint brust
alphabet stamps/stencils
fat ribbon
pins
sissors
sewing machine
iron

start by cutting out a triangle template from an old greeting card or a piece of card stock.  trace around your template and cut out triangles.  next  iron the triangles(my burlap came folded in a small roll, so there were creases--not so easy to work with!).  once crisp and fresh you can stamp your letters.  place a piece of paper towel or newspaper under the triangle--or you'll have to clean paint off of your table!

next, fold the ribbon in half and iron it so it will stay put.  decide where you want your triangles and pin them place.

stitch in place, hang and enjoy!

sitting here with it done, i realized that i could have probably just bought a tube of liquid stitch and made this a no sew project!  lol  so if you don't want to sew it...go with the tube! 

hope you'll give it a try!
