Banners and Flags

Marching Band Directors Appreciation Gifts

I wanted to give the band directors something special from my son. Had only seen car flags for the actual football team.  Thought these would be a different kind of personalized gift for them.

Cut letters with Cricut machine from fabric backed with Heat and Bond.  Ordered flag holder on line from flag supply company.  School colors are purple, silver and white.  I think they turned out great.

The band director for my son's school (Arabia Mountain High School in Lithonia, Georgia) wanted a fabric banner for the marching band.  The school is fairly new (starting its 3rd year), and the band had only a vinyl flag.  So, I took pictures of the vinyl banner to help with the design; I got input from the director on details to include on the banner, and voilà! 

Started with this vinyl banner for inspiration:

Using the Cricut Expression cutter and design software for lettering and graphic conversion, the finished banner turned out great.  Lots of work, but love how it turned out.
