I made this as an Anti-Valentines/early Halloween post on my blog and thought it just turned out way too cute! I loved the idea of a VooDoo Lady using it to sew.

You Will Need (6 things)

  • Cardboard
  • Hot Glue
  • Embroidery Needle
  • Fiber Fill
  • Embroidery Thread
  • Burlap

Steps (7 steps, 120 minutes)

  1. 1

    I used this book to create this template, but you can do it freehand if you wish.

  2. 2

    Then find a way to secure the template to the fabric.

  3. 3

    And get to stitching. You can do this however you wish.

  4. 4

    I wanted mine to look very rustic, so I varied up my stitches a lot.

  5. 5

    Cut out a piece of cardboard that you will be able to fold the fabric over to get a circle.

  6. 6

    Then fill it with fiber fill and hot glue down the sides to the cardboard. You would have to fold the edges of the fabric down at angles to get a circle.

  7. 7

    Then you're done! You can stick in your pins to your hearts content!
