- Red ribbon (13.5cm x 1cm)
Tools:
- Scissors (paper & fabric)
- Needle

- Printer & A4 paper (print the pattern at 100% on A4 paper)
To Make:
Download the pattern and print out as detailed above. Cut out the paper pattern. Pin the paper star to the two squares of white cotton and cut out.
Separate out the cotton stars, place one of the stars over the paper star and trace the design with the tailor chalk pencil.
Cut off a length of the embroidery thread/floss and separate into 3 sets of 2 strands. Thread the needle and place a knot at the end of the thread. Work a running stitch to fill in all of the detail.

Pin the star shapes together, right sides of the materials facing out.
Work a running stitch around the edge of the star. Fold the ribbon in half and place between the layers at the top of the star. Leave a space un-sewn at the base of the star for stuffing. (see image below)
Lightly stuff the star and continue stitching the opening closed.
