  Step 1

  First of all draw out your Chicken. If you like you can use my one, download the PDF.

• 

  Step 2

  To get the templates, I used a light box and separate piece of paper to trace around the chicken, and then cut them out.

• 

  Step 3

  Pick your three colours of felt.

• 

  Step 4

  Trace around the templates on to the felt.

• 

  Step 5

  All your pieces should look like this. Also, pick a cute little button, which you will use as an eye.

• 

  Step 6

  This may seem like cheating, but it makes things so much easier. Take one of the main body parts and use a small amount of glue to add the tail feathers - layer them up nicely.

• 

  Step 7

  Add the beak, legs, hair and neck piece. Turn over and it should look like this.

• 

  Step 8

  Attach the wing to the front and sew on the small button as an eye using embroidery thread.

• 

  Step 9

  Now take the second body piece and a brooch back.

• 

  Step 10

  Stitch the brooch back on to the body piece using embroidery thread.

• 

  Step 11

  Place the two body pieces together and stitch around the whole outside of the chicken using matching thin thread.

• 

  Step 12

  Stitch with beige embroidery thread to add feather details to the wing.

• 

  Step 13

  Yay, you're all done!

My boyfriend's mom is a teacher, so I think I might make her a set of holiday themed ones for Christmas! Thanks for the idea!
