1:

You will need designs from Starbird's "Christmas Ornaments and Garland" pack, and you can also add text from the "Christmas Text" pack, if you wish. Additionally, gather the following supplies: fabric felt (we used red, gold and green felt), metallic thread (red, gold and green), an 18 cm machine embroidery hoop, thin metal ornament hangers, and quilting fabric or ribbon (optional).

 2:

Cut three pieces of felt, all the same color, sized to fit in an18 cm hoop. Stack all three pieces together one on top of the other and hoop together. Add the corresponding metallic thread color to your embroidery machine and also use a matching thread in your bobbin. Embroider one of the designs.

 3:

After the ornament shape has been embroidered you can now add text from the "Christmas Text" Design Pack. There are 29 words already sized to fit inside the ornament shapes.

 4:

Remove the fabric from the hoop and cut along the outside running stitch thread.

 5:

Once you have made several garland shapes, thread the Patons Allure or other thin yarn through the candlewicking needle and poke through the embroidered circles in the garland shapes so the yarn is in the back.

 6:

Now your new ornament is ready to be hung on your tree or you can make several and give them as gifts.
