  Step 1

  Creating your robin decoration ~
  Use pattern (not to scale - increase or decrease to desired size) to cut out the body x 2, wings x 2 and 1 x red breast.

  Step 2

  Next slot the red felt and ribbon between the 2 body pieces and pin then tack (stitch lightly) into position.

  Then tack the 2 wings into position ensuring that they sit slightly over the red breast. Your robin can now be machine or hand stitched …

  Step 3

  Machine stitch around your robin as image ...

  (or) Hand stitch – blanket stitch around the edge (black spots), then use running stitch around breast and over wing (white spots).

  Step 4

  Finally remove tacking thread, add on button eyes and your robin hanger is finished!

• Step 5

  Something different? … Reduce the pattern size and add a brooch pin to the back to make a cute felt Christmas brooch!
