1. Take a length of strong

thread and add a sewing

needle. Choose the

pom-poms you want to

add to your accessory and

decide where you want to

position them.

2. Pierce through the fabric and secure your thread with a knot or

two. Sew through one side of a pom-pom, and then back into your base

fabric, where you exited from. Travel under the fabric to where you want to sew next

and continue until you have added enough pom-poms. Tie a couple of knots and then thread

under your fabric and out of the back. This leaves a tail thread inside your work, to keep your knot from unraveling. Trim off the thread as close as you can to where it exits your fabric.

Sew pom-poms onto your accessories to add a splash of colour!
