Materials for all Ornament Shapes:

(See separate lists and directions for Angel Ornament and Christmas Ball)
1 Felt square or felt fabric (12" x 9")
5" x 5" piece of polyester quilt batting for filler
Novtex trimming for decorating
Glue gun and glue stick
Bits of sequins, pearls, beads, charms or other items from your trim collection.

For all shapes use these general cutting and gluing directions: Trace the pattern shapes. Cut two felt pieces. Cut one polyester batting piece (ornament filler, this gives the finished ornament added dimension), cutting this piece ¼" smaller than the pattern. Place the batting piece between the felt pieces. Glue the felt edges together, leaving a ½" space at the top for the hanger. Cut a 10" piece of trim for the hanger, fold in half and glue the ends into the opening. Add glue to close the opening. Using the Novtex trimmings decorate the ornament. Accent and individualize your ornament with bits and pieces from your trim collection.
