Stuffed Animals

My Amazing friend Rachel over at tunes and spoons  came across some old stuffed animal patters from her grandma and was nice enough to share them with us! I have a desk job so anything I can do while sitting down I just have to try! So.... This is what I did!


Picked up some fun fabric and string (I wanted it to be thick string)
Note: You only need about a 1/4 of a yard 


Head over to her blog and print the pattern out! If you want the animal bigger just blow up the pattern. After you iron and pin the pattern to the fabric cut it out (You need to have two pieces)  

Follow the stitching lines. Make sure you are stitching the back side of the fabric! That way when you tie it off you can't see it. 

After all that is done sew up all but one side 

Stuff the guy full of fluff then sew up the rest! It took me about an hour to figure out how to do it but once you've done one the rest are super easy!

These are the four I've made so far. Elephant, Bear, Giraffe, and Lion!
