~ For the Group Banner Project

We have a group banner where all Victorian Chapters are invited to send in a decorated 6″x6″ square, which will all be attached together to form one large banner.

This is a lovely way to show that while our Chapters are all separate, we all come together in the spirit of Hatting together!

It also shows how unique, fun, crafty and different each Chapter is.
