Materials Needed:

• Fabric
• Felt scraps (for eyes/beak of owl)
• Fusible web (i.e. Wonder Under)
• Rice (short or medium grain)

1) Print out pattern. (Click HERE for PDF)

2) Cut out pattern. Trace eyes and beak onto fusible web. (Note: Trace “whites” and “blacks” of eyes separately.)

3) Trace pattern onto wrong side of fabric.

4) Trace onto right side of fabric as well. Make sure that the outlines match up. This is to ensure that we  place the eyes, beak and wings in the correct place.

5) Iron fusible web tracings of the eyes and beak onto the scrap felt pieces. Peal off backing of fusible web and iron onto the right side of fabric.

6) Zigzag stitch around eyes to secure in place.

7) I hand-sewed the beak to secure in place. You can also machine sew.

8) Zigzag stitch wings into place. (You can refer to the pattern to make sure you place them in the correct spot. They should stick out a tad beyond the traced outline of owl.)

9) With right sides of fabric facing each other, sew along traced line. (Note: I do this because I feel like it is easier than cutting outline first and then sewing a 1/4 inch seam allowance.) Make sure you leave a couple inches open at the bottom for flipping inside out and filling with the rice.

10) Cut excess fabric, leaving extra fabric near opening. (I find this helps with sewing opening closed)

11) Flip inside out. Fill with rice (don’t overfill). Blind stitch the opening closed. And you’re finished! 🙂

• Embroidery thread for mouth
• Fusible web (i.e. Wonder Under)
• Rice (short or medium grain)

1) Print out pattern (Click HERE for PDF)

2) Cut out pattern. Trace eyes, nose, hands, feet, ears, tummy onto fusible web. (Note: I label them so I will know which is which later.)

3) Trace pattern onto front and back side of fabric. (I lift up to light to make sure the outlines are matching up.)

4) Iron the traced body parts onto fabric.

5) Cut out body parts, peel off backing of fusible web and iron onto fabric.

6) Zigzag stitch around body parts to secure in place. With right sides of fabric facing each other, sew along traced line…make sure to leave opening (I left the top of the head of bear open).
