- Cut green felt into basic holly leaf shapes try for them to be the same size or as close as you can you can always trim later.
- Cut red felt into holly berries either individually or as a three.
- Sew two holly leaves together one on top of the other using a chain stitch and tying neatly when you’ve been all the way round.
- Repeat for the amount of leaves you want to make.
- Use two leaves and sew together at an angle from each other.
- Add the red berries on top of the neatest side (you could use buttons for the berries if you prefer)
