Cut Out + Keep | Project » Felt Mini Stuffie

Need a friend? Here's how to make one!

Decide what you'd like to make (I decided on a bear) and draw it out onto a piece of paper. Once you're happy with your drawing, cut it out.
Fold your felt in half and trace your little guy onto it.
Pin the felt together and cut the stuffie out.
Now is the time to decide what details you'd like to add. I've added button eyes, arms, legs, white for his ears and a white heart for his tummy. Cut out the little extras and sew them onto what will be the front of your stuffie.
Pin the front and back pieces together.
Start stitching around the outside of your stuffie. I like to use a blanket stitch for this but you can use whatever stitch you'd like. Make sure you leave a small opening somewhere so that you can stuff your stuffie.
Start stuffing! :D

Use your chopstick or pencil to push the stuffing into small areas like his ears.
Once it's stuffed to your liking, finish stitching it up, and voila! You've got a new little friend! :D
