Crafty Fox Plushie
Step 1
Draw the fox onto parchment paper with a pencil.
Step 2
Transfer the pattern and cut shapes out of black, white, and orange felt. Cut an extra piece out of any color for the back.
Step 3
Arrange shapes as in the photograph. Sew in place using a straight stitch.
Step 4
Thread embroidery needle with embroidery thread. Use a backstitch to
create a mouth.
Step 5
Align back piece with front. Use a blanket stitch around the outside
edges to sew the front and back together. Leave a 1-inch opening along
the bottom.
Step 6
Stuff with fiberfill.
Step 7
Use a whip stitch along the bottom to sew it closed.
For a fun option, hot glue googly eyes on the fox instead of using felt.
Step 8
