making the world more colourful

So... less words, more pictures this time. We are working on sewing some giant flags for the festival 'greenbelt'.

We are on the 'site vibing' team, dedicated to making the somewhat unattractive venue, (a racecourse), a bit easier on the eye. Also, we not only feel more involved in the festival but we earn our tickets. Last year, we made these rainbow flags to decorate the grandstand:



They look teeny in the picture but they were at least 3 metres tall.
This year, we're doing flags on a grander scale, they are probably close to 5 metres long, and made up of stripes of different coloured fabric. Here's one against the cabin, to give you some sense of it:

They are all different colours and are going to look amazing... but they take a few hours to make and we are making 20 or so, so as I sew tedious straight lines I think: making the world more colourful, hooray!
