To make the Needlecase
1.Cut a rectangle of doctor’s cloth or wool felt with pinking shears just smaller than the size of the Tokens and Trifles™ sewing card.
2. Tack the doctor’s cloth or wool felt to the back of the blank sewing card near the top using stitches through perforations in the edge. Use a matching white sewing thread. Hide your knots behind the doctor’s cloth or wool felt.
3. Once the doctor’s cloth or wool felt is installed, flip the sewing cards over and position the tops together. Thread a12 inch length of silk ribbon in a needle. Pass the ribbon through the large outer holes as shown on the diagram to tie together the two cards. Do this while the cards are lying on a table flat so that the needlebook will open easily after the ties are installed. First tie both sides together with a knot in each set of ribbons and then tie a decorative bow on each ribbon hinge and trim the ends.
4. To make the ribbon ties, thread a 12 inch length of silk ribbon through the central outer hole at the bottom of each card as seen in the picture. Tie the ribbon together in a knot near the sewing card and then again near the end of the doubled ribbon. Trim the ends. Fold the needlebook along its ribbon hinges and tie the book closed. |
