Yesterday I managed to do a lot in the Xmas tree costume, and it's being easier than I expected. I used a large sweater which belongs to my son (Ana's sugestion).
I got a sheet of newspaper and placed underneath the sweater. I did the pattern.
With the help of a ruler I made the triangles/point.
I left the pattern longer than the sweater.

This is the fabric that my colleague gave me. It's a very heavy and thick fabric. It seems those fabric normally used on sofas and chairs. But it will do perfectly.

I bought golden wrapped ribbon made of fabric in the supermarket. As it was very wide, I decided to cut in half so that I could have enough for the back.

The balls I took a piece of carton. You can use the carton of the cereal boxes. I draw the circle in the fabric that I wanted.
The fabrics that I used was the red fabric of which I made the knoted top. The backwards is completely red. The other fabric is the one that I used to make the scarf to place inside the shoe box.
Yesterday I've sewn all the front part and the ribbons of the back. I think I'll finish it today.
