You Will Need (5 things)

  • Needle And Thread And Thread
  • Elastic
  • Scissors
  • Pattern (provided)
  • Felt

Steps (6 steps, 60 minutes)

  1. 1

    You'll need felt in different colors, elastic (flat or round), needle and thread, scissors, and the mask pattern (provided).

  2. 2

    Download the template for the bird mask here. Cut out the parts for your mask.

  3. 3

    Attach the elastic. If you choose to use flat elastic, sew it to the inside of the back half of the mask. If you choose to use round elastic, make a knot in the elastic at both ends. The knot will keep the elastic from slipping through the stitches. The round elastic with knots will be attached as you sew.

  4. 4

    Sew the mask parts together. I sewed the outside of the mask first then sewed around the eyes. I also double up on my thread when threading my needle. Don't forget to include the elastic (if you used the round kind) and the beak.

  5. 5

    This isn't part of the pattern, but you might want to add a few "feathers" or other decoration.

  6. 6

    All finished!
