Jo, My Gosh!

The Shape of My Heart Template

For both ornaments, youll need:

-1 sheet of colored felt

-scissors -white embroidery thread -needle -pen or marker

Directions:
1. Print the template out (preferably onto cardstock). Cut it out. 2. Trace the pattern two separate times on felt and cut out. (If youre making the mittens hold hands. youll need to cut out each pattern four times.) 3. Stack both felt pieces and carefully line them up. Using at least 3 single strands of embroidery thread, stitch the pieces together. (The stitch marks on the template are just a suggestion). 4. To add a hanger: Stitch a small loop of embroidery thread. You can attach a metal ornament hook to the loop. Or, using basting stitches, stitch a 4-inch piece of ribbon onto just the back piece of felt to create a large loop that could slip over a tree branch. 5. Hang on your Christmas tree and admire!
