Here’s how to make Buffalo Plaid from Kunin Felt:

STEP ONE

In a well-ventilated area or outside, spray the embroidery hoop and wooden greeting with Design Master ColorTool Walnut Wood spray stain.  Design Master is a professional spray paint that provides excellent coverage and dries super quick.

STEP TWO

From yardage, cut a 16” by 16” square of Kunin Classic™ Felt Red, insert in the embroidery hoop, pull gently to make felt taught and then tighten the screw at the top.  Trim excess from the back of the hoop.

STEP THREE

Measure and cut 2” by 2” squares – nine (9) from Kunin Premium™ Felt Black and twenty-four (24) from Kunin Premium™ Felt Charcoal.  I like to use the Stabilo Aquarellable White Pencil to trace onto dark colors of felt.  Layout Buffalo Plaid pattern, starting with the black square in the center and alternating with charcoal squares.

Once you are pleased with the composition, attach squares with fabric glue.  Let the glue dry.  Once dry, carefully trim the edges.

STEP FIVE

Draw simple tree shapes on plain paper, cut out and fit on to the front of the hoop.  Then trace trees onto Kunin Premium™ Felt Kelly Green, Olive, and Apple Green.  Cut out and attach to hoop with fabric glue.
