Cut two triangles with equal sides - these are 9 inches.<br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_7-SJUHq6eK0/SrmKbpYLlxI/AAAAAAAACSI/a_WuXvwvc48/s1600-h/22.9.09+005.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5384487037066516242" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_7-SJUHq6eK0/SrmKbpYLlxI/AAAAAAAACSI/a_WuXvwvc48/s400/22.9.09+005.jpg" /></a> 2. Sew together with right sides of fabric facing, leaving a small opening for turning.<br />3.

From your Christmas fabric, cut two circles approximately 8 inches diameter. I used a small side plate for my template.<br />2. Sew the pieces together, right sides facing, leaving a small opening for turning.<br /><br /><p><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_7-SJUHq6eK0/SrmFHT4sZVI/AAAAAAAACRA/NrPlTR5zJ_w/s1600-h/22.9.09+014.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5384481190141781330" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_7-SJUHq6eK0/SrmFHT4sZVI/AAAAAAAACRA/NrPlTR5zJ_w/s400/22.9.09+014.jpg" /></a> 3.
