This is what you'll need:
• Ribbon of your choice (I've found that the 7/8 ribbon works best)
• thread
• suspender clips
• cording
Measure your ribbon to about 10 inches. If you're going to layer your ribbon like I am in the pictures then now is when you'll want to sew them together. Then measure out a piece of cord about 5inches long.
Fold one end of your ribbon 1/4 inch and then fold again 1 inch. Now mark at the top of your fold. This is where you are going to add a button hole. If your sewing machine is compatible or if you have the know how add your button hole to where you placed your mark.
If you chose not to use a button hole you can fold the ribbon and cut a small half circle where you've placed your mark.
Once you've created the button hole insert your cording into the hole, making a loop about 3 inches long outside of the button hole. Fold your ribbon over again and stitch around the rectangle. (I've used a zig zag stitch) Then add a criss cross stitch through the center of your rectangle. This is what holds the cording in place.
On the other end of your ribbon place the ribbon through the suspender clip ring and then fold 1/4 inch and then another 1/2 inch fold. Stitch across to secure suspender clip.
TA DA! You have an universal pacifier clip ready for any paci you throw at it!
