Fabric Ornament Number Two

To make one of these you will need:
- contrasting Christmas fabrics
- a button or charm that will be sewn onto the middle
- thread/ribbon for hanging
- matching sewing thread
- your sewing machine and iron

1. From your Christmas fabric, cut two circles approximately 8 inches diameter. I used a small side plate for my template.
2. Sew the pieces together, right sides facing, leaving a small opening for turning.

3. Turn through, iron pieces and sew the opening closed.

4. Fold the circle in half, and sew together at the top.

5. Catch other two sides in the middle.

6. Thread needle through to the back and then back to the front to secure.


7. Turn over the four corners. You can press the corners down to make them sit better.



8. Sew a button or charm to the centre and loop a hanging thread through one corner.
