:-D :-D :-D I hope this will all work out. Here is how I made my ear warmers. I'll try to put the instructions in the caption of each picture. supplies needed. The pattern piece and some fleece. Fleece works best for these as they have just the right "give" to the fabric and will have just the right stretch also. It's a lot warmer too but for this tute I did not have any fleece so I 'm using a pink valour fabric with batting and at least it will give you the idea of how it is made. Just pretend it is fleece. No batting needed for fleece at all. Ok I will start posting the picks with the instructions. Good luck, Huggies, Fay..Note: you may have to resize the pattern piece and you can do so in your scanner if it has that capability. THe measurements are written on the paper
