Simple sew monster

    What you need:

    • Felt
    • Scissors
    • Embroidery thread or fine wool
    • Needle
    • Button
    • Stuffing ie polyfill or scrap fabric

    Activity:

    • Draw the shape you want your monster to be.
    • Once you have the shape you want cut out pieces of felt to the template you have drawn, allowing a little extra all the way around for the seams.
    • Then with needle and thread sew a simple stitch about 1/2cm in from the edge along the outline, leaving an inconspicuous edge unstitched to allow for stuffing.
    • Turn the monster inside out and stuff generously – make sure to get stuffing into any arms/legs/heads.
    • Once filled continue sewing until completely enclosed.
    • Sew on the button for the eye or eyes and stitch on a mouth.
