Step 1.
2. Next, choose the fabric you would like the design to be in. I’ve chosen a cotton fabric so that the design won’t slip and its easy to sew.

5. Next, choose a similar colour thread to the design.
6. After this, fold the edges of the design under and begin to sew up through the design and then back into the the outta fabric, all the way around.
