1) Cut out two snowmen from warm
& natural batting and one snowman from polyester
batting. The easiest way to do this is to
sandwich the polyester batting between the 2
layers of warm & natural batting, trace the
snowman once, pin the snowman together through
all 3 layers then cut out.
2) Sew all the way around the outside edge
(close to the edge) of the snowman.
3) Sew 4 seed beads down the front as pictured
for buttons.
4) On the top ball section, sew on one orange
bead as the nose and then sew on the black beads
for the eyes and mouth.
5) Trace and cut out 2 hat pieces from black
felt.
6) At the top of the snowman, glue one hat
section to the front and one to the back of the
snowman being sure both hat pieces line up with
each other.
7) Tie the 3/4" x 12" piece of plaid fabric
around the snowman's neck as a scarf.
8) With green fabric paint, draw three holly
leaves on the hat and put 3 red cots in the
center of the leaf cluster. Attached you'll
find a step by step diagram for drawing the
holly. If you have trouble with this or if
it's not quite your style, you can eliminate
the holly and glue a thin strip of fabric or
piece of thin ribbon around the hat to form a
hatband instead.
9) Once the hat is dry, thread a piece of
crochet thread or clear elastic thread through a
needle and pull through the back of hat. Remove
needle and tie ends in a knot. This is your
hanger.
