Tutorial: Vintage cloth baby book bunting

Ashlee from My So Called Vintage Life uses a vintage cloth baby book to make the sweetest bunting. Each of the flags in the bunting is made from a page in the book. It would make a special gift for a new baby. You could even use it to decorate for a baby shower, and then give it to the mother when the shower is over. If you’re not able to find a vintage cloth baby book, or perhaps don’t want to cut one up, you could scan in pages from a paper baby book and print them on to printable fabric.
