Well, I made this to replace the air freshener in my car. Plus it’s an excuse to combine two of the sexiest thangs around - anchors and leopard print! It is simple as easy to do, so have some fun and see whatcha get! x

Draw your anchor (or desired image) onto paper.
Cut it out.
Place the template onto a pice of felt (we'll call this felt A) and draw around it.
Fold the felt it half. And cut out, this will give you two identical shapes. TIP: Pin the felt in place once folded to prevent it from moving while you are a-cutting out.
Put an anchor on the back of the second piece on felt (we'll call this felt B) and draw around it. Then fold it as before.
Then cut it out.
Glue both the anchors onto felt B.
Pin the ribbon, as straight as possible, onto the right side of the felt (B). Do this with some ribbon hanging over the edge. This will keep it anchored (no pun intended) to the inside once it is sewn. TIP: To prevent the ribbon from moving around or getting sewn by accident, you can fold it and pin it down.
Place the felt onto the third piece of felt (we'll call this felt C) making sure you have enough space (approx 2cm) around the edge.
Draw around it. (<.< My 1st line is blue)
Draw another line about 2cms, from the last one. (<.< My 2ed line is pink)
Draw a third line inside the first. (<.< My 3rd line is pink)
Cut around your inside (second) and outside (third) lines. It doesn't have to be neat. (<.< I'm cutting both my pink lines)
You should having something that looks like this?.. A funky looking avocado shape thang. Make a cut every 3/4cms NEAR to the existing line. This will be visible fridge on the outside.
Now sew the three pieces together. Place them as follows. 1. (B) Face up.
2. (C)
3. Then the other (B) piece face down. Then sew away.
TIP: Make little cuts approx every 1cm. This will not be visible but will make the felt bend when everything is turned inside out.
Stop sewing all THREE pieces 2/3 of the way around, and only sew TWO - one (B) and (C).
Turn inside out.
Stuff away!
Sew up the gap.
Cut the outside felt into triangles.
And your done! Nice wwon. x
