I started by making ribbon flowers. All you need is felt for the backing, ribbon, scissors and a glue gun.
Cut a circle from the felt and tie a knot into the end of the ribbon. With a dab of hot glue, secure the knot to the center of your felt backing, add a little hot glue, twist the ribbon and press it into the glue as you circle around the knot.
Continue by adding another bead of hot glue then twist and press the ribbon until you complete your flower. Secure the end of your ribbon to the back with hot glue.
I made 3 little flowers to attach to the front of the onesie and a matching headband, but it still needed something. So I decided to add the coordinating ribbon.
I turned the onesie inside out and measured down an inch from the underarms.
I carefully opened the seams on the onesie just wide enough to accommodate the ribbon, turned the onesie right-side out and fed the ribbon through the openings. Using no-sew heat bond, I attached the ribbon to the front of the onesie.
To secure, I turned the onesie inside out, stitched the ribbon in place and trimmed the excess.
With a matching headband, this made the perfect little gift set.
