Steps (13 steps, 60 minutes)

1. 1

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

2. 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.

3. 3

   Pick your three colours of felt.

4. 4

   Trace around the templates on to the felt.

5. 5

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

6. 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.

7. 7

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

8. 8

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

9. 9

   Now take the second body piece and a brooch back.

10. 10

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

11. 11

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

12. 12

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

    Yay, you're all done!
