Trace or cut out the pennant pattern on the two layers of fabric.

Fold the short straight edge towards the back of the pennant 1/2". Stitch down along the raw edge. This will be what holds the wooden dowel in place.

Press Heat n' Bond to the wrong side of the fabric pieces. Trace pattern to the back of the Heat n' Bond. Cut out fabric pieces.
