· Cinnamon sticks



Step 1

Make a triangle template from card/paper - play around with the size and shape


Step 2

Press your fabric


Step 3

Fold fabric right sides together and trace round your template with a fabric marker and cut them out. You should have 2 triangle pieces


Step 4

Pin the triangle together with a small seam allowance then sew the triangle together leaving the base of the tree open.


Step 5

Trim the seams and snip of the point at the top of the tree.


Step 6

Turn the tree right sides out and press- whilst pressing turn the raw edges of the base of the tree under by 1 cm. This is to not have any raw edges.


Step 7

Fill with toy stuffing


Step 8

Find the centre of the base of the tree make a mark where the cinnamon stick will go and sew up to the centre leaving a gap either side to insert the cinnamon stick


Step 9

Use a hot glue gun and squeeze some glue onto one end of the cinnamon stick then insert the glue stick up into the gap at the base of the tree
