    Looking for a pattern for a no sew angel made from granny's hankie one that is easy to make.
    Use a styrofoam ball about the size of a ping-pong ball.
    Place in the center of the hankie.
    Tie beneath the ball with a ribbon, leaving long ends hanging.
    Use two opposite corners and tie a knot in each close to the end to make hands.
    Glue hands together, making sure the fabric under the ball is gathered nicely.
    Glue ribbon flowers to hands.

    Get some Twisted paper ribbon and make a bow hot glue the bow to the back of doll for wings.
    I get hair from a craft store and glue on head... but have seen them without hair.
    A gold cord, or pipe cleaner glued to head makes a nice Halo. Paint the eyes and mouth.
