FELT MONSTER STEP BY STEP DIRECTIONS
Step 1: Draw your monster design out on a sheet of paper.
Step 2: Cut your felt piece in half and layer one on top of the other.
Step 3: Pin your main monster pattern to the 2 pieces of felt. Heart pattern only needs to be pinned to one piece of felt.
Step 4: Cut circles out of felt or use buttons to sew “eyes” on the top layer of felt. Using the embroidery floss sew a straight line across the top layer to create a mouth.
Add your heart or other embellishments to the top layer before you sew the two pieces together.
Step 5: Using the embroidery floss sew your two pieces of felt together. When you are almost done stuff your monster with fiberfill then sew the rest of the way.
Step 6: If you are sewing a monster with arms and ears you just sew them in when you are sewing the two pieces together.
Step 7: Done! Enjoy your new Felt Monster Friend.
