Easy Sew Christmas Ornaments – DIY Kid Friendly Christmas Ornaments

I needed some kid friendly ornaments.  No breaking, no shattering, no small pieces.  So…I went with the perennial favorite: stuffed fabric Christmas ornaments.  I used Nutcracker fabric and Christmas Tree fabric made by Michael Miller.  I cut out the shapes I liked the best, sewed the edges, stuffed with batting and closed them up.  I used a little embroidery floss to hang them with.  Super simple and fast.
