I saw a picture of these on a swap I was involved with on another craft site and decided my daughter had to have some oranges.
I made my own pattern based on what I saw. Hope this helps you bring joy to someone who likes play food.

Steps (7 steps, 30 minutes)
-
1
Assemble your supplies.
-
2
Cut out one circle in white. A slightly smaller circle in the color of the citrus fruit you are making. And a lozenge shape whose sides are the same length as half of your larger, white, circle in the color of your fruit's rind.
-
3
Put your circles together! The color on top of the white.
-
4
Now sew them together. A running stitch around the edge, another down the middle and then the detail running stitch to make sections in your citrus wedge. You will end up with a spoked wheel as seen to the left.
-
5
Sew the lozenge rind to the circle making sure you line up the center stitch with the points on the lozenge. Leave a space to stuff!
-
6
Stuff your almost complete citrus wedge with polyfill (or whatever other stuffing you think is appropriate).
-
7
Stitch your wedge shut and try not to eat it!
