How To Make
You Will Need
- A Make Your Own Mushroom Cushion Tea Towel Craft Kit
- A pair of sharp scissors (ideally fabric scissors) or pinking shears
- Dressmaker's pins
- A sewing needle and thread (for hand stitching). or a sewing machine
- Material for stuffing your bear (this can be toy stuffing. yarn scraps. pulses �whatever you prefer to use!)
- A steam iron
Instructions
- Iron your fabric so as to remove any creases.
- Cut around each shape using a sharp pair of fabric scissors. Put the two brown acorn pieces to one side.
- Place the front and back of the two red mushroom shapes right sides together. line them up and pin the two sides together.
- Using a sewing machine or by hand. sew a line 1 cm from the edge of your cut shapes �be sure to leave an opening of around 5cm so you can stuff your mushroom later. If you're using a sewing machine. use a backstitch to reinforce the opening.
- Remove the pins and turn the sewn shape through the opening so that the right sides are now on the outside.
- Fill the house using whatever material you choose. We recommend using recycled polyester toy stuffing (you can buy this from a haberdashery shop). You can also use any scrap fabrics or yarn that you might have at home �even a few old pairs of socks or tights �or dried pulses such as lentils.You could even fill the acorn with dried lavender to make a moth-repellent mini cushion!
- Once you are happy with the shape and feel of your mushroom. sew the opening closed by hand using a needle and thread.
- Repeat steps 3-7 with the two brown acorn shapes.
