Add Decoration:
You can add an extra special touch to your Santa sack by using a ribbon with decorative stitches for the bag string.
TIP:
When sewing decorative stitches onto your ribbon, use softaway/tearaway to stabilise. Cut thin strips of the tearaway and back onto ribbon. This will stabilise your decorative stitches when sewing. Tear away the stabilizer when finished.
