Holiday Plaid Embroidery Hoop Ornament

Directions:


  • Instead of hand painting or stenciling on the ribbon, I created the “stencil words” using a Silhouette Cameo Electronic Die Cutting Machine out of removable vinyl. I removed the inside of the letters leaving the blank space.
  • Use the transfer tape to pick up the stenciled word. Place the transfer tape on the center of the cotton twill ribbon. Rub gently over the transfer paper to transfer the vinyl onto the twill ribbon. Remove the transfer paper.
  • Use a paintbrush to carefully stencil (or paint) the inside of the letters. Allow to dry and remove the vinyl. (The vinyl words are for one use.)

  • Open the embroidery hoop and place the flannel on the embroidery hoop. Lay the stenciled twill over the center of the flannel.

  • Place the outside hoop over the flannel and twill and tighten the embroidery hoop. Cut the excess flannel and ribbon from the back of the embroidery hoop.
  • Glue a cardstock circle onto the back of the embroidery hoop.

  • Measure and cut the pine stem to fit around the outside edge of the embroidery hoop. Glue the craft pine stem* onto the embroidery hoop.
  • Tie a small bow using the striped ribbon.
  • Cut the berry sprig down to size, glue both the ribbon and berry to the top of the hoop.
  • Add natural twine to the top to hang.
