Description 

I got such an amazing positive feedback from many, many people concerning my monsters that I decided to give all my blog readers a little gift: A tutorial to make your own RevoluzZzionary Monster. It’s a simple one and even if you are a beginner you should be able to do it. If you have any questions while you are making the monster - just contact me. And you can make the monster with a very simple sewing machine - you only need a simple stitch and a zigzag stitch. And the cute little monster I made during this tutorial - its name is Ninni - will be drawn by lot (my daughter and I like the RevoluzZza ribbon “lottery” that much that we want to have another “RevoluzZza lottery” :-)). Just leave a comment and on Friday my cute little daughter will draw by lot who will give the little beast a new home. Everybody can join - no matter where you live. OK, let’s get started!

Instructions 
  1. 1
    Step 1

    Download the pattern, print it and cut out the pattern. I chose to use different fabrics for the front and the back of the monster:


  2. 2
    Step 2

    Pin the pattern on the fabrics and cut it out:


  3. 3
    Step 3

    Serge the part which you will use later to close the monster with a blind stitch:


  4. 4
    Step 4

    Cut out the felt eyes and sew them on the front fabric:


  5. 5
    Step 5

    Now fix the felt tooth (or teeth if you want to give your monster not just one tooth) while you sew the mouth with a narrow zigzag stitch:


  6. 6
    Step 6

    After you fixed the inner eyes you simply stitch a cross on the eyes by hand:


  7. 7
    Step 7

    Stitch the felt heart on the monster front:


  8. 8
    Step 8

    Now pin the front and the back of the monster with needles and sew the two parts together - but leave the part open which you will use to turn the monster inside out (the part you serged before):


  9. 9
    Step 9

    Now you have to cut some parts of the monster: the ears, over the little arms and between the legs (like shown on the pattern you downloaded). Serge the monster with a zigzag stitch - narrower on the parts you cut:


  10. 10
    Step 10

    … and this is the best moment when you create monsters and any kind of dolls and stuffed things: When you turn it inside out and see the final creature. Still a very flat monster - but already a monster


  11. 11
    Step 11

    It’s almost finished. Now we only have to stuff the little beast with doll wadding and close it with a blind stitch by hand:


  12. 12
    Step 12

    That’s it!

Just made one of these little guys over the weekend as a gift for a 2 year old. It came out so well and was so easy! Love it so much I blogged about it in my DIY Christmas Gifts article: http://frugaltownie.blogspot.com/2011/11/save-money-on-christmas-gifts-by-making.html
