Stitched Header

Just a nice and simple header you can use for you're site to display a Heading and a Sub-Heading, with a nice gradient background and yellow stitching!

It should be pretty easy to understand.

<div id="headerBox">
    <div class="stitching" />
    <div id="headerText">
        <h1>Heading Text</h1>
        <h2>Sub Heading</h2>
    </div>
    <div class="stitching" />
</div>
