Harry Potter Banner Tutorial

These banners were one of my favorite decorations of the entire Harry Potter Party.

Luckily they were pretty simple to make too.

I have explained the sewing steps and needed materials below, but

before you begin you need to make the House Applique and House Name Applique.

For mine, I found some images on the internet I liked from Nicholas Hyde found here.

They made some pretty cool Harry Potter Banners, but they weren't quite the style I was going for, but they were part of the inspiration.  So I blew the images up and cut out the animals. The printable link is below.  

Then for the House Name, I hired my neighbor, who has an embroidery business and at excellent cost, so I just went through him.  But, had he not been around, I was going use Iron On letter.  So be creative.
