• Step 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.

• Step 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

• Step 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***

• Step 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

• Step 5

  Stuff with beans or stuffing

  Use a hot glue gun to attach ears and feet

• Step 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!!
