Star Ornaments - Cutting

On a piece of paper draw a star about 3½ inches across. You should like the way it looks but it does not have to be perfect. The charm of this ornament comes from its’ hand made imperfection. This paper star will be your template. Cut it out carefully.

Lay your template on your wool and trace around it with tailor’s chalk.

 

To get the maximum amount of ornaments out of the precious felted wool, trace the stars very close to one another. With my template I was able to draw five star shapes per piece.

Carefully cut out your shapes.
