You Will Need (5 things)

  • Fabric Scissors
  • Soft Baby Fleece
  • Thread
  • Printed Fabric
  • Paper Pattern

Steps (9 steps, 120 minutes)

  1. 1

    you will need *soft fabric for head and main blanket
    * pink scrap for inner ear * 2 buttons for eyes
    *scissors * thread to match * cute print for border of blanket

  2. 2

    i did not use a pattern for this project...i just sortof went with it...its a crappy picture but you can see that the head is just a circle with a little extra on one side for the nose.

  3. 3

    cut two head pieces out of your soft fleecey fabric...and 4 ear pieces.

  4. 4

    from your cute print you will need to cut or rip strips that are 4 inches wide and very long...and out of your fleshy pink you will need 2 small circles.

  5. 5

    next turn your soft fabric...faces in and sew around edge...leaving an inch or so open...and with the ears...sew just around the curve. turn right side out and stuff. i ran out of stuffing so i just used scrap fabric.

  6. 6

    hand sew the ears on your head

  7. 7

    next you will stitch the buttons on for eyes...you dont need to but i also stitched a nose and a smile..lastly for the head you will need to sew the inner ears with just a quick whip stitch.

  8. 8

    i cut a 16 by 16 inch square of soft fabric and took my strips of cutie fabric and sewed a border around the whole thing...

  9. 9

    last step is stitching head to center of blanket...and there you have it...the sweetest little tag-along you ever did see...
