I like Penguins. I was watching the BBC series “Frozen Planet” and loved the episode with the penguins, and the rock stealing hehe.
I knew as part of my tutorial advent I wanted to make another small felt soft toy similar to little lamb, and little chicken. So here is a tutorial to make a little penguin. (My boyfriend thought it was meant to be the penguin powerup from Super Mario 😛 )
Materials:
Black / Navy wool felt from Sew Sweet
Orange / Yellow wool felt from Sew Sweet
Toy Stuffing
Pattern (download here)
How to:
First print off the pattern and cut out all the pieces from felt.
Take one body piece and sew on the white tummy, eyes and beak. Add some extra detail to the eyes by sewing stars with white thread.
Lay the other body piece down, and place the flippers and feet in place, then the front body piece face up. Pin around the edges.
Sew around the edge of the penguin, leaving a small gap for stuffing. Stuff and sew close the opening.
