Fold the short edge about 1/4 once and 1/4 twice.
Go into the sewing machine and stitch it down.
Repeat on the other short edge.
Fold it in half and cut through the folded side.
Lets call these pieces C units.

Grab one fabric A and place it right side up.
Take one unit C and fold it in half lengthwise wrong sides together.
Center unit C on top of fabric A on the short side.
Stitch it done with a 3/8 inch seam allowance.
Step 5:
Flip the small parts up and place them right sides together.
Sew on the sides and bottom.
Finish the raw edges by using the serger.
Fold the seam allowances and to the side.
Turn out the corner to get a nice 90-degree corner.
Step 7:
Remove loose threads and press flat.
Step 8:
Take one of the ribbons and fold it in half.
One end will go on the back and the other on the front.
Repeat the same step with the other ribbon but on the other side.
Grab the open ends and tighten it up.
Tie a knot with two ends in it.
you could also use two strips of the same fabric.
Each one should be 22 long and 1 1/4 wide.
To create the tie, fold the edges toward the middle, then fold it one more time.
Stitch on the edge.
Thread them the exact same way as the ribbons.
