ACTIVITY: Jesse Tree Ornament – Three Maji & Star of Bethlehem

WHAT YOU NEED:

• felt in blue and yellow  (I recommend getting a variety pack)
• embroidery floss in blue and yellow 
  (I recommend DMC variety pack)
• embroidery needles
  (you’ll need ones with a large needle eye)
• stuffing
• scissors
• tracing paper
  or freezer paper
  (optional if you want to print out my photos and make templates out of them)

HOW TO MAKE:

• INSIDE STAR: on the yellow, draw out your star. TIP: I slightly rounded the sides of the star so they weren’t perfectly straight/sharp. 
• OUTSIDE STAR: lay your yellow star down on the blue felt and trace a shape similar to but approximately buy klonopin australia 1/2″ larger. Cut out two pieces…one will be the back and one will be the front.
• ATTACHING STARS: using blue floss, stitch the yellow star onto the blue. Then, attach the two blue stars together with the yellow floss. You can either do a straight stitch (like you did on the core) or a blanket. I really prefer the blanket stitch 🙂 I added a bit of stuffing to mine just before sewing it closed. It’s also up to you if you want to make the colors contrast or coordinate with the felt. 
• …we will come back at the very end and attach the ribbon to the ornament for hanging.
