Vary the Fabrics for the Season!

Prairie points stitched to a round base make wonderful stars to enjoy on a tree during the holidays. They will also be fun hung just about anywhere around the house.

Choose Christmas fabrics or make them up for any season. We can imagine these adding a whimsical note to our home all year long.

The ornaments are very simple to make. Just stitch prairie points to a lightly stuffed base and finish them off with buttons and a hanging cord.
