She took the decision to take a stall at a wedding fayre, and wanted a banner for her table. It was to match - if possible - her website.
To start, I searched to find the font used for the lettering so that I could produce templates, but as this was unsuccessful I resorted to photographing the banner enlarged on my laptop screen!!
It worked and I was then able to cut out the letters from some gorgeous felt I'd bought from The Little Felt Shop on Ebay.
I then stitched these on to black fleece so I had the 3 seperate words. I was also lucky to find some embelishments that matched the floral bursts from her website - which I then glued on.
As a backing I used a length of creamy crushed velvet to try to create a light floaty feel but wth still some substance to the banner.
Although at the beginning of the process I was worried how it would turn out, I was pleased with the final result - and more importantly so was Martina.
She had a very successful day at the fayre - but I'm not sure that that was necessarily down to my work!!
I hope she was pleased with the banner - that's a fantastic job you've made of that and it's such a good match to her website banner. Lovely!
