3 Peas In a Pod

Hi! I'm gonna show you how to make a plushie today!
Template:



Directions by ME (easy for me):

Materials:
  • Felt
  • Thread
  • Needle
  • Stuffing
  • Zipper (optional)
  1. Cut out all the felt pieces (reference off of template)
  2. Take the big piece and blanket stitch where there are dotted lines on the template. Then inverse and add a zipper (if you want)
  3. Put all the small ovals in groups of 4. Take 2 of the 4 and blanket stitch them together.
  4. Repeat step three for all the pairs. Then stitch two together, and inverse them. You should finish with three pieces.Stuff it, and add facial features!
  5. Put the three peas in the pod. Have fun!
Additional Info:
  • You could make more or less than three peas
  • You could make the peas customized to how you would like them. I made an albino one!
  • I personally like the zipper, because you don't lose the peas.
  • You can make felt letters and customize the pea pod! Put your name on it so no one steals it, or make a face of his own!!!

Kawaii Octopus Plushie

Hi! Today I will teach you how to make a Kawaii Octopus Plushie!

Template:
and here is a tutorial to go with it: 

Here are MY directions (easier for me):

Materials:
  • Felt
  • Felt glue
  • Thread
  • Needle
  • Stuffing
  1. Cut out all the felt pieces. Reference with the template.
  2. Grab the large ovals, and put them in pairs. Take a pair and blanket stitch them from top to bottom, but leave about 1 1/2 inches of space at the bottom (to stuff later).
  3. Repeat step 2 with the next pair. Then stitch the final two pieces together.
  4. Inverse the product. Now you can glue on any facial features. Stuff it now!
  5. Now pair up all of the small ovals. Grab a pair and start blanket stitching them together. Fill with stuffing as you go.
  6. Repeat step 5 with the other pairs. These will be the tentacles.
  7. You are done! Now glue the tentacles on the bottom of the octopus, and glue on anything else you might want on your octopus.
  8. Have fun with your new octopus!

Additional Info:
  • It won't be perfect the first time, I know. Practice makes perfect, REALLY! The more times you make one, the better it will be!
  • Only making 6 tentacles makes it easier to fit them all on, and it looks better.
  • Make your octopus unique! I made mine peanut butter colors, the front was light brown the back was dark brown. The tops of the tentacles were dark brown, the bottoms were light brown. I even added a pink mustache to go with the pink thread! You can also add:
                      A tail, uni-brow, cyclops eye, bow, top hat, googly eyes, every piece is a different color, arms, whiskers, or anything else you can imagine!
