Easy Folded Fabric Ornament

Things you will need for this project

Two different Cotton print fabric

Ribbon or yarn for the loop

gem, button for the centre

Print out a circle 7-8″ in diameter for a template or use a bowl or pot lid as a template

 

Cut out 1 circle from each fabric

place the circles right sides together

Sew around the circle with a 1/4″ seam allowance, leave a 2 to 3″ opening for turning

Flip the piece right sides out, do a top stitch around the edge about 1/8″ away from the edge as you go over the open hole fold it inwards to seal it up

Grab a needle and  thread, ribbon of some sort and a centre piece if you wish

Fold the piece in half finding the centre point, use your needle and thread and insert into the fabric near the edge, go to the other side of the centre point and again insert your needle into the edge of the fabric, pull the fabric tight so it looks like this

find the insert secting corner points and again sew those corners together until it looks like this

going to each point fold the fabric over to the back so it looks like this, do this a total of 4 times and fiddle with the fabric until it all looks even and forms a perfect square

thread a string or ribbon through one corner hiding the knot under the folded fabric in the back.

finished with decorating the centre if you wish
