Description

Instructions

  1. I used a faux fur fabric for the "back" and back felt for the rest of the body. Using the pattern cut out 2 body pieces, 1 head piece, 4 feet, 2 ears, and antenna if desired.

  2. Sew together straight edges of the head to create a cone. You can turn your fabric, I left my edges raw on the exterior

  3. Sew together the top and bottom pieces of the body- wrong sides together ***Leave a 2" gap at front to attach head*** ***Leave a 2" gap at back to turn right side out***

  4. Insert head into one of the holes in the body (which is still inside out), sew together Turn right side out now through other hole

  5. Stuff with beans or stuffing Use a hot glue gun to attach ears and feet

  6. Make it your own! I used an embroidery French knot for her nose, and gave her a bow and antennas Pierce her nose, give her stripes, go for it!!
