I'm so pleased to offer my Giant Panda Ornament as a PDF tutorial and pattern! You will receive a download for an easy-to-read 12 page booklet with a full-size hand-drawn pattern and 26 color photos showing step-by-step instructions. A sample page is shown in the last photo of this listing. The finished ornament measures approximately 4 3/8" in width and 3 7/8" in height.
Materials and tools you will need:
Wool or wool-blend felt (I buy my felt from FeltOnTheFly.etsy.com.)
DMC 6-strand cotton embroidery floss (The list of colors is included in the booklet.)
Polyester batting (I use Mountain Mist Light-Loft.)
Narrow black rick rack (I buy it from LittleRedCottage.etsy.com.)
Scissors, straight pins, embroidery needles.
Embroidery and hand sewing stitches used: blanket stitch, stem stitch, running stitch.
I have included photos to show how to embroider these stitches. If you would like more detailed instructions, there is a wealth of free information on the internet. Just google "embroidery stitches", "blanket stitch", etc. There are even YouTube tutorials available - what a great time to be a maker!
