5. Cut a 5 cm wide strip of Christmas fabric. The width is the width of the towel plus 2 cm seam allowance.

6. Iron over 1 cm on each short side of the Christmas fabric. Pin the fabric now to both of the towel pieces you see in step 3, and sew with a 0.75 cm or 1/4 inch seam allowance. Zig-zag stitch the seams and press flat.

How to Make Patterns and Permanent Templates
You need patterns and templates mainly for sewing crafts, wood crafts and paper crafts. Creating permanent templates is easy and has a couple of advantages. First, if you wish to create the same project more than once you will save a lot of time because the template is already prepared. And second, if you are working with a group, the templates are durable and can be easily passed along to the next person. Permanent templates are especially useful when making crafts with children.
