I made the sketch, ironed fusible to the back of the top fabric,
copied sketch onto paper of fusible.

Then cut out all the lines, taking care not to connect lines, resulting in cutting APART.

Once satisfied with the cutting (big lines easily were done with a 28mm rotary cutter, then small areas cut with tiny scissors - so it went pretty fast), I fused the top to the black background fabric.

I decided kind of at the last minute to make these, so didn't have time to do batting/quilting or anything. It is just a wall hanging, so felt that would be safe to do.

Then I added the tassel: Took a skein of embroidery floss, left it in the paper wrapper, pulled out and cut one complete wind of the floss, set this aside.

Then I wound a thin gold cording around till it looked right, beginning with a dab of hot glue to hold the end of the gold cording to the floss, and sealed the end using another dab of hot glue.

Do the same to the other end of the floss, one skein made 2 tassels.

Using the piece of floss set aside earlier, cut lenght into 2 pieces. Use these as hangers, thread it through the loop on each end.

Cut the 2 tassels apart.

I used a big embroidery needle to gently poke a hole where I wanted to hang the tassel (I didn't think about the whole "which side should it hang?").

I then pulled the hanger floss through the hole, and a few hand stitches on the back to secure.

I had thought of putting pockets on the back so they could store their cards they recieve, but ran out of time.
