Fabric Star


I've been wanting to make a fabric star ever since I bought one last November in Finland. I was visiting my BFF in her hometown of Joensuu, Finland, and we went to a local arts and crafts event. There was a woman selling all kinds of cute crocheted and sewn items. I fell in love with her fabric stars. I bought one, and it has been hanging on my sewing room window ever since I got back. Here it is.



A few months ago, I found a  fabric star tutorial at Pinterest that had a great picture tutorial how to make one. It has sadly taken me that few months to think about how I'm going to put it together, and today I finally made it. It was SUPER easy. Now, I want to make hundreds of them. :) Watch out! You might be just getting one. 

Here is my fabric star





I'm thinking about sewing a button to the middle. I think it will look nicer just like the one I got from Finland. I just need to go and buy a pretty button.
