I sold some bunting this week. Its been a while, I'm not sure why as it really is very lovely.
Besides the fact that bunting is both beautiful and useful, Moyo developed their version as a way of using up scraps of fabric.
They still do that to a certain extent but in reality they wanted every triangle back and front to be special so now both scraps and new kanga are cut. Each triangle has to be cut out separately. Because the weave on Kanga is very loose it's difficult to get a perfect triangle. As a final touch they added some small masai type beads and sparkly sequins to give them extra pazazz.
The bunting is sold in a netting bag, originally conceived as a gift bag, I've found with the sets that I own, that they are really useful for keeping the bunting folded and flat so that they don't get all creased.
