Do you have a video tutorial of this pattern? The flower was easy, but I find it difficult to understand the bunting portion.
Why is this called a bunting? I was searching a cocoon like baby bundler and this is a party or event banner. So disappointing when searching.
Where are the pictures of items?
Thank you so much, I look forward to your wonderful patterns
