  Step 1

  Looking at an example of pusheen, draw out a basic sketch of the character

• 

  Step 2

  Now trace just the body of the cat on a different peice of paper.

• 

  Step 3

  Cut it out-this will be your pattern

  (you can see where I cut his tail off-whoops!:)

• 

  Step 4

  On a large sheet of gray felt, trace around your pattern with a marker

• 

  Step 5

  flip the pattern over and trace it again

• 

  Step 6

  cut out the 2 body peices

• 

  Step 7

  As you cut, be sure to leave plenty of seam allowance, I went with a little over a quarter inch

• 

  Step 8

  tada! here are the 2 sides of Pusheen's body

• 

  Step 9

  Now pin them, good sides together, so the marker lines are on the outside

• 

  Step 10

  See the red pins under Pusheen's tail? Don't sew between those pins, that is the area you will use to flip him inside out later on

• 

  Step 11

  starting at the underside of Pusheen's tail, sew all the way around along the marker lines

• 

  Step 12

  stop at the red pin on the back of Pusheen's rightmost foot

• 

  Step 13

  This is the area you left unsewn. now stuff all of Pusheen through this hole so he is inside out

• 

  Step 14

  Lookin' fancy already!

• 

  Step 15

  Next, stuff pusheen so make him extra cuddly

• 

  Step 16

  sew up the hole nice and tight
  I used a blind stitch-
  this might help you

  Step 17

  Congrats, that was the hardest part! now you just have to stitch on all of the details that give Pusheen his attitude. Start by cutting gray felt stripes for his tail and sewing them on securely

• 

  Step 18

  now, for his hat. go back and look at your sketch so you know about what size to make it.
  Cut the 2 sides of the hat from black felt, making if slightly bigger that necessary to account for seam allowance

• 

  Step 19

  pin the 2 sides of the hat together. This time, don't sew across the bottom brim of the hat, you'll need that open later

• 

  Step 20

  Sew all sides of the hat except for the bottom/brim

• 

  Step 21

  flip the hat inside out

• 

  Step 22

  stuff the hat with just enough stuffing to give it shape. After you sew it closed the same way you sewed up Pusheen, sew a stip of colored felt(I used deep violet) above the brim of the hat

• 

  Step 23

  Sew the hat between Pusheen's ears, make sure you stitch it plenty!

• 

  Step 24

  Cut out three semi-circles from gray felt and stitch them just below Pusheen's tophat

• 

  Step 25

  Now for his adorable face-
  Cut out pusheens felt eye, monocle and 'stache. use pins to hold them in place while you sew

• 

  Step 26

  Cut out three small rectangles for whiskers, mine were about 1 1/2 inches by 3/4 inch

• 

  Step 27

  roll the rectangles and stitch them so they don't unfurl. Now you can attatch them to Pusheen's face

• 

  Step 28

  Don't forget about the gray felt stripes on his back

  Fancy Pusheen is complete!
