Preface:

CAUTION: With the metal bells sewn on to the towel, it may be best to hand wash the towel to avoid damage to your washing machine and the towel.

Step 1:

Gather the materials and read through the instructions before beginning. Have a copy of the color sequence on hand for reference.

Step 2:

Mark the center point of the design on your towel, I have positioned mine above the band. Hoop the tearaway stabilizer and float the towel, ensuring the center point mark is under your machine foot. Place the Solvy over the towel and do a tack down stitch to hold it all in place. Stitch out Rudolph's face.

Step 3:

Take the red ribbon and lay it across the width of your hand towel over the band, leave 10mm of ribbon at each end to turn under. Pin it in place, then edge stitch the ribbon on to the towel.
