Steps (9 steps, 45 minutes)

  1. 1

    1. Cut out your circles

  2. 2

    2. Take 5 ” piece of lace seam tape and cut it in half length wise

  3. 3

    3. Pin the seam tape in the shape of the awareness ribbon justified to the left and then stitch the ribbon on with a zig-zag stitch (you will trim off excess ribbon on the bottom to your liking when you are done).

  4. 4

    4. Next make a decorative stitch to fill in the right area of the white circle (we used an abstract stitch choice from our sewing machine).

  5. 5

    5. Now layer the white circle, then the pink circle in the middle, and one more white circle.

  6. 6

    6. Do a zig zag stitch around the outside of the circles to attach them all together (try to not stitch over the pink ribbon. I folded and pinned the hanging bits of ribbon in the center of the pin while I zig-zag stitched).

  7. 7

    7. Then, I went over the pink ribbon portion on the felt circle with another decorative flower stitch (but you could do another zig zag instead).

  8. 8

    8. Trim the ends of the ribbon to the length you like.

  9. 9

    9. Finally, on the back stitch on the pin with embroidery thread.

    Add done!
