Banner Making
Sewing banners is an ancient
craft.
Banner sewing is an ancient craft. There are a wide variety of
techniques used in this art, including patchwork, appliqué, fabric
painting, and embroidery. Banner making produces a piece of cloth, often
shaped like a flag, which bears an important message, usually a logo or
slogan. This craft has been around for a very long time.
The term banner comes from the Latin word bandum, which translate into
“cloth to produce a flag” (similar words can be found, including the
Latin banderia and the Italian bandiera). The word was developed in
German to mean a proclamation or decree. Since these proclamations
usually served to prohibit a particular activity, bandum began to mean
ban or control. Banns has the same origin, and means official
proclamation. To abandon means to “leave the cloth or flag”, or more
simply put to change allegiance or go against an order.
