Nutcracker Christmas Decoration - hanging felt soldier motifs in red and pink

Kitch Christmas - one of my felt soldier decorations from the Nutcracker ballet would look gorgeous decorating your Christmas tree, or attached to a beautifully decorated gift as a decorative feature. Part of my zero waste approach to crafting, the motif on these decorations are offcuts of quilting cotton fabric from making my Christmas stockings and aprons - this is a beautiful print in rich reds and hot pinks, on a stunning turquoise background. I fussy cut each soldier and machine applique him with a tiny blanket stitch to a white wool felt backing. This is then carefully cut to shape by hand, before stitching to another layer of coloured felt that is also trimmed by hand. A white ribbon is securely sewn between the layers of felt to create the hanging loop. You can choose from a red or pink felt background. The exact figure will be sent at random, but if you have a preference (for example the soldier with the gingerbread man) please add a note to your order and I will try and do that for you. Approximately 5 inches tall, with a 2 inch hanging loop.
