Like a Postage Stamp

I stuck to sewing these ribbons on the pointe shoes even after I'd stabbed my fingers with the needle and had cramps in my hands - it only took me just under 4 hours (had a couple of breaks). I'm not much of a seamstress but I'm a bit of a perfectionist so they had to be just right, these ribbons will probably last longer than the shoes especially if the 20hrs life expectancy of them is anything to go by!
