Instructions:

1. Print out the pattern to the needed size and transfer the large triangle to a white piece of cardboard and cut out. Lightly transfer the creasing lines and by using a stylus and a ruler, you can create a creased line on both sides. Later this will be folded back.
2. Following the instructions for fusible web, now trace the hat and nose pieces onto the paper side of the fusible web and fuse it to the back side of the red fabric. Then cut the pieces exactly out on the cutting lines.
3. Do the same for the beard and pom-pom pieces onto the beige/gold fabric.
4. The eyes get fused onto black fabric and cut out.
5. Once all of the pieces are cut out, fuse them to the cut out cardboard triangle. Use the pattern as a guide for placement. First fuse the beard, then the face and then the hat. The pom-pom gets fused on the hat after the piece gets creased.
6. Crease the 2 sides toward the back of the Santa. The fabric should easily crease with the cardboard.
7. Fuse the pom-pom now onto the hat.
8. Tie a piece of ribbon into a bow and glue to the front of the Santa Claus.
9. Use dimensional paint to dot white light reflections onto his eyes and nose.
10. Make a stand piece by cutting a piece of cardboard measuring 7cm x 4 cm. Fold this piece short wise in half and glue one half to the backside of the Santa and so the other half lays flat on the table behind him to support him.
