Description 

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.


Instructions 
  1. 1
    Step 1

    Assemble your supplies.


  2. 2
    Step 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. 3
    Step 3

    Put your circles together! The color on top of the white.


  4. 4
    Step 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. 5
    Step 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. 6
    Step 6

    Stuff your almost complete citrus wedge with polyfill (or whatever other stuffing you think is appropriate).


  7. 7
    Step 7

    Stitch your wedge shut and try not to eat it!
