How to Make It:

  1. Draw a simple shape on thin cardboard, and cut it out. Use markers to decorate both sides.

  2. Punch holes around the outside edge of the shape.

  3. Cut a long piece of yarn. Tie one end to a corner hole. Put tape around the other end to make a “needle.”

  4. Practice making running stitches (as shown on the car) and overcast stitches (as shown on the house). Directions for other stitches can be found under “sewing” in many encyclopedias.
