Crikey Not Christmas 2022 Part 22 –Ribbon

 Crikey Not Christmas 2022 Part 22 –Ribbon

I can continue now the Glue has finally dried.

Wrap Around Again

 










The reason that I am Wrapping the Ribbon around again is in two parts. First is to give it more strength. The Second is to hide any patches of Glue that have seeped through.

Curved Needle

 










Since I need to Sew Deep rather than across I have changed to a Curved Needle. This makes Stitching the Ribbon so it doesn’t move easier.

Wind Around Hand







 

I Wound the Ribbon around my Hand. This was to give a good Length of Ribbon to use as a Hanger. I pulled the Ribbon tight then cut off the remainder.

Sewing Loop

 










I Crimped the End of the Ribbon then Tucked it Under to make a Loop. This was a couple of Fingers wide. I then Sewed across to Secure.

Double Loop










 

I then Folded the Loop and Sewed across again. This is to give it extra Strength so it doesn’t tear or fray.
