DIY Plushies: How to Make A Frog
Step 1:
Prepare the template patterns by printing and cutting them out. Trace the body patterns and the legs (a total of 8) on green felt, trace the blush patterns on pink felt, the big circles for the eyes on white and small circles on black felt; and trace the belly pattern on a different shade of green than the body.
Step 2:
You will need to cut a total of 8 patterns for the legs and make 2 pairs by stitching 2 together. Place any 2 leg patterns together and stitch around the side but keep the straight thin end open for stuffing.
Step 3:
Place any 2 leg patterns together and stitch around the side but keep the straight thin end open for stuffing.
Step 4:
Stitch and stuff all 8 patterns and craft 2 pairs of legs.
Step 5:
Grab any one of the body patterns and attach the eyes, blush and the belly pattern on it. Use a black thread to stitch the mouth of the frog, near the bottom end of the head part.
Step 6:
Place the plain body pattern on a flat surface and lace the 4 legs on; 2 along the bottom side and 2 on both sides of the body. Overlap about a cm of the legs with the body pattern.
Step 7:
Place the front body part on the top of the back body part.
Step 8:
Start to stitch around the sides of the frog to join the body parts and the legs together.
Step 9:
Keep an opening to stuff the felt frog with cotton. Stuff the frog until it looks nice and fluffy.
Step 10:
Once the stuffing is complete, stitch the open end to secure the stuffing. Tie a tight knot and cut off extra thread.
