    Instructions

    1. Cut red and white felt, cut white smaller on all sides.  Layer and sew red and white felt horizontally.

    2. The front section can be cut slightly shorter on one side so back color shows.
    3. Sew on three sides to create pocket.  Sew a ¼” seam then trim to a scant 1/8”
    4. Cut out dip in top layer if desired when finished.

    5. Pin patterns and cut out shapes. White chalk can be used to draw patterns onto felt if needed.  Brush off excess chalk after glue is thoroughly dry.

    7.  Glue pieces in place.
