Steps:
-
Using the felt square as the backer place your first scrap print side up. Position your second scrap print side down. The two scraps will be right sides together.

Straight stitch strips of fabric in place. Turn the top layer of fabric over and finger press flat. Repeat until you have a large enough patchwork for your desired shape.

Add decorative stitching in contrasting thread.

Trace and cut out your shape. I used pinking sheers.
-
Fold ribbon in half and insert at the top edge between the backer felt and scrap layers.
-
Straight stitch all around to keep the ribbon and fabric in place.

Reduce or enlarge tree outline as desired. Ornament pictured is approximately 4” tall.
