  1. 1.Cut 2 pieces of fabric, see pattern.
  2. 2.Sew ric rac ribbon onto one fabric piece, 2 cm from the edge. If you wish, use the marker pen to make guidelines for sewing. When you have sewn on the ribbon, fold the end of the ribbon 0.5 cm and sew over the top. See fig. 1.
  3. 3.Sew 2 pieces of fabric together, right sides facing (one piece with ric rac ribbon, the other without) (0.5 seam allowance). Leave about a 6 cm gap for turning. See fig. 2.
  4. 4.Snip into seam allowance along rounded seams. See fig. 3.
  5. 5.Turn right side out. Press.
  6. 6.Hand-stitch the gap with invisible stitching to close. Sewing tip: If you use nylon/polyester ribbon, you can melt the ends to prevent fraying.
