This weeks handmade Monday post consists of a make a little bit different from the usual things you’re used to seeing! I have mentioned in the past about my husband competing in a cycle event called cyclocross and he is part of a cycling club in cheshire along with 2 others who also compete. Being the good wife that I am I go along to every race to cheer him on and give him support. We have even booked a holiday to Vermont, based around dates for a race that he is going to enter! So when contemplating my next few projects, I decided what better way to show my support than to make a banner/flag with the clubs logo and name on!
I decided the best way to get the club logos onto the fabric was to print onto transfer paper that I could then iron onto the fabric. I ordered what I needed from Crafty computer paper. I was slightly doubtful that it was going to work, so I was pleasantly surprised when it worked, with very little effort! I will definitely be using it in more projects in the future!
Here is me and the banner at the race today
I’m hoping it will be around for the next few years, travelling with us wherever we go!
Over now to handmade harbour for handmade Monday!

Hi, that worked really well looking at your picture. I have been wondering how to get my logo onto a fabric banner so you have given me the answer – computer transfer paper and iron on! Thanks!
That looks really professional. A great make! I hope it encourages them in their races
It looks a really great banner, and sounds like it’s going to get plenty of use
Great little banner. I love Crafty Computer paper- I could spend a fortune on that site!
What a brilliant idea and how fabulous does it look?! I love the idea of booking a holiday around his cycling plans too! Have a lovely week. xxx
What a brilliant wife you are. If you are not careful you will be making one for every supporter
What a great idea! My husband has just asked me to make him one.
Brilliant idea! I bet your husband was really proud

It looks brilliant – well done. Hope you have a good week.
Well done on the banner. I can just see you waving it madly as your husband passes by! Think I’ve seen to many wacky races cartoons!
