MEASUREMENTS
Each finished pompom measures 7cm
in diameter (2¾in).
CUTTING OUT THE FABRIC
Step one Drawa circle with a 7cm(2¾in)
diameter onto paper and cut this out to make
the template.
Step two Place your circle template onto the
wrong side (WS) of the fabric, draw around it and
cut it out. Repeat to make 20 circles.
FOLDING THE CIRCLES
Step one Cut a length of matching thread. Fold
this in half and thread the two ends through
your needle.
Step twoTake one fabric circle and fold it in half
WS together then half again to make a little
fabric wedge. 01
ASSEMBLING THE POM POM
Step one: Hold the pointed end of one folded circle between your finger and thumb, then push the needle through the end of it a couple of millimetres up from the bottom. Thread the needle through the loop at the other end and pull up to secure.
Step two: Attach nine more circles in the same way, by folding them and threading the mon the end of your needle.Work a tiny stitch after you have threadedeach foldedcircleon to secure. 02
Step three: Take the thread and sew it back through the first folded circle again so you have a ring of folded circles – this will form one half of your pompom. 03
Step four: Repeat with the other ten circles to make the other half of the pompom.
Step five: Stitch the centre points of one half to the centre points of the other half securely, to
finish your pompom. 04
Step six: Make several more pom poms in the same way using a variety of fabrics, then thread
a length of twine through the centre of each pom pom to hang as a garland.
