How to Make Fabric Christmas Ornament:
Step 1
Cut the fabrics to size, then lay the large white square on a flat surface with its right side up, and fold it in half. Press it nicely, then unfold, fold it in half the other direction, press, and unfold. Turn it over so the wrong side is up, then fold the corners to meet at the center, and press as you go.
Step 2
Fold each corner to the center again, then pin them in place, and stitch on each corner ¼” from the center. Cut the green squares diagonally in both directions to make 4 triangles, then put fabric glue on the wrong side, and attach them on top of each fold making sure they’re centered.
Step 3
Slightly fold back the fabric to allow the red fabric underneath to show up, then press it down, and topstitch around the edges of the curves. Fold a piece of ribbon in half, then pin it to a corner, and cover the entire piece with the print square with their right sides facing.
Step 4
Clip the layers together, then stitch all the way around, leaving a gap on one side, and backstitch at the start and finish. Clip the corners to reduce the bulk, then turn the piece right side out, poke the corners, and stuff the piece with poly-fil fiberfill. Tuck the edges and stitch it close, then sew a button at the center, and you’re done.
