Hi all!
This is my first, ever, tut and I'm a newbie to stitching.
This is a simple, doodle embroidered, felt covered hair barrette. It costs almost nothing to make & in a snap!
Enjoy!

-
Trace around the hair clip onto card stock
Cut about 1/4" around, larger than your tracing
Your template should look something like this -
Using your template, cut out 2 pieces from your felt
-
Take 1 of the felt pieces and doodle embroider your design leaving about 1/4" edge all around
Put aside for a few -
Next...
Place the hair clip on the remaining piece of felt
Approximate where you'll be inserting the narrow piece (the unsnapped hair clip's bottom piece) through the felt
-
Taking your scissors, snip a short slit like this...
-
With an unsnapped hair clip, insert the narrow piece through the slit you just snipped
-
Snap closed
-
Place the 2 felt pieces together, one on top of the other- your embroidered piece RS facing out, the underside should look like this
I used a running stitch all the way around -
Like so
-
Turn it over
Tah-dah!
