The LDS childrens primary theme for 2012 is Choose the Right. So to go along with that theme I made these CTR wristbands!
A quick, lame tutorial :)- cut 2 pieces of felt to 3" x 8"(This is for a child's size). Then make an awesome template that looks something like this...
Cut your template into the top piece of felt. Match the two pieces together (don't worry if they don't match up exactly). Use felt glue to glue the pieces together, making sure to secure the small pieces (like the middle of the C) down well. Then sew around the outside. Trim off any excess (after I did this they ended up being around 2 1/2" x 7 1/2"). Then sew velcro to opposites and opposing sides, so that when rolled into a wristband they will secure together. And voila! You're done! 
That will help remind your primary kids to Choose the Right...Well, we are still working on it ;)
Hey, my kids could use some of these nice reminders too! :) Nice work Kir!!
