There’s a
link at the bottom for a printable template page.
Here are the
supplies you’ll need:
Background 5

9” x 17” approx.
Thin
Batting (1)
9” x 17” approx.
Fusible
Web 1/8 yd
Ribbon
(12”) or Small Hanger
Print the
template page and trace each element onto the paper side of your fusible web,
leaving at least ½” between the designs. Trace on the dotted line for the Inner
Stable. Cut the pieces out ¼” or more away from the traced lines.
Sew the 14”
Border strips to opposite sides of the Background and press. Add the 7 ½” strips
to the top and bottom edges and press.
On your work
table, lay the batting, backing (right side up), and pieced top (right side
down) as shown in the photo and pin. Begin sewing near a lower corner and sew
¼” from the edge all the way around, leaving a gap for turning.
Tie a knot
at each end of your ribbon. Use small safety pins on the back going through to
catch the knots to hold the ribbon in place, or hand sew the knots to the
hanging.
Merry
Christmas, Friends!
