Children will have great fun designing and sewing their own original felt monster toy - perfect for Halloween or any time of year!
You will need:
Felt
Needle and embroidery thread
Toy stuffing
Fabric glue
Wiggle eyes/gems/sequins/scraps of felt/fabric paint whatever you can find to decorate your monster
Toy monster template (or design your own!)
Instructions:
Cut two monster shapes from felt (use our template for help if you need it). Sew them together around the edge using running stitch. Leave a small gap to stuff the toy.
When the toy is full, sew up the gap.
Glue on buttons and ribbons and anything else you have in your craft box to make your monster look really scary.
