Instructions

Use the Santa Sleigh Felt Pattern to cut out your pieces.

Using felt – Cut 4 side pieces 2 underneath pieces.

Using card – Cut 2 side pieces 1 underneath piece.

Stitch the card pieces inside the felt pieces, using a blanket stitch. Then stitch the underneath section to the sides again with a blanket stitch.

Put your own artistic touch to it by decorating it with novelties , beads or fabric paint.

It makes a nice table decoration – to display nuts, serviette holder, or fill with chocolates, perfume, or soaps to give as a gift.

 

To make the serviette holder you can make the underneath section narrower, to keep them together.
