Welcome to my little stop on the Make up Your Own Holiday Blog Hop!
We will be Celebrating Monster Appreciation Day!
Have you hugged a Monster Today???? I hug my little Monsters multiple times a day!!!
You should have Hopppppped on over from Ellen's Fabulous Blog! Amazing Right!
My Project today are little Felt Monster Stuffies!!
So Cute, and the kids decorated them all by their sweet little selves!
First pin to felt pieces together, trace a Monster shape onto the top. I used Cricut cartridge Mini Monsters and selected the shadow shapes cutting them out to 8.5 inches. Using these as templates.
Then use your sewing machine or hand stitch all but a small opening on the traced pattern. Then cut out leaving 1/4inch all the way around the pattern. Turn right side out. And stuff with fluff. Hand sew the leftover opening.
Decorate however you like! My monsters went simple, but you could sew on a mouth with yarn, add other felt shapes... it is endless!
Your next Stop on the Hop is Monica... be prepared to be awed! :)
