Whaaats up guyssss:) So today I'm going to show you how to make this felt pennant.
[ I'll be giving away a couple of these on Patreon and IG.. so you check there.. or if you just wanna buy one.. I have em on Patreon:]

I couldn't find the gray felt that I wanted.. So I just found some white felt and I dyed it gray and it should work ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
First thing I did is I'm a cut it to size. Its going to be 7" and a lil bit and then 13".. ya 13"
ALSO I'm getting over a cold, so sorry if I sound all nasaaaaaalyyyyy.
Next I folded it over and on that fold side I went up about an inch and cut it. This is going to make the two lil points that I want. This is just the design I liked. Others have people just have one single point.. But I thought this looked preeeetty cooool....
I got some heat transfer letters. There is like a shiny side and a mat side. I put it mat side up.. and you can tell with which way the letter make sense.. that's the side that goes up ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
So I put em down and got them lined up how I wanted them using that ruler.. then, got an iron and just pressed it on there. I didn't have to hold it too long.. and i did that to all of em.
and.. yah:) That seemed to work. It doesn't feel like they will come off too easy.
Next I got some string and I threaded that needle. I'm going to use this to sew down the fold where the dowel will fit in. To start the stitch.. I started on the edge on the inside and went around the edges of the felt. This way my fold won't come undone.. and I went around twice.
Then I started the stitch from the back went over a little bit and went through the front... went over about the same length.. you want to keep the length the same each time. That should make your stitch look nice.
to finish the knot.. I finished it under the fold so I could hide it:) and.. that will look pretty good. A dowel will fit in there. peeeerfect.
I'm just using the same sting that I did to thread it, to hang it up. Just make a lil knot.. size it to how I want and cut it off.
and.. there we have it:)
I found a different felt that was gray and I liked the color of it. It was a lil more expensive but thats what I going to try out for the screen print.
To do the screen print you have to take your image and separate the colors. So I have three different screens. First I was going to do the white screen.
This white ink.. it's plastisol ink.. but its the stiffest plastisol ink I've ever used. In order for it to cure you have to heat it up. So I just have this lil heat gun... and you just want to heat it up till its dry to the touch.
so on the images - and I'll probably go through how to do a multi colored screen print later - I have these lil registration marks and you just line them up.. and hopefully that will make the image line up.
And.. yah it looked pretty good:)
So again you got to cure the ink.. and I wanted the gold to be a little thicker so I actually came over it again. relined it up and printed it again.
between each time i print I got to heat it up and cure the ink.. other wise its going to stick on to the back of your next screen...
I lined up the black.. andddd... nice:)
You can see on the black there.. I burnt it a little bit. So youre going to want to watch out for that. Don't heat it too long.
I did have the marks in the black screen where I wanted to cut it out. So that made it easier to cut it out. I just had to line up my ruler and cut it.
So I wanted to try out this hand held sewing machine.. lil hand.. guy?..
and it was really crooked... I was going to redo it, but I noticed on the back it had this lil chain stitch thing... and that wasn't going to work on a double sided pennant.
I just went with a regular sewing machine.. I got the heat press letters and did it on the back of this one..
Wich do you like better?
