How to Make a Teddy Bear Tuffet

This tuffet is easy to make. Even a child can do it!

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• 2 felt squares (your choice of colors)
• Yarn needle
• 6-strand embroidery floss
• Fiberfill stuffing
• Ink pen
• Scissors

1. 

   Determine how large you'd like your tuffet to be. I used a plastic lid as my template to make 9" circles. Use a cup, bowl, lid or pan to make your own circle template.

2. 

   Place lid on wrong side of felt( I chose 2 different colors of felt to make my tuffet reversible). Trace around lid with ink pen.

3. 

   Cut circles out of felt.

4. Layer circles wrong sides together.

5. 

   With yarn needle and embroidery floss, whipstitch pieces together, leaving a 3" opening.

6. 

   Stuff tuffet. Don't overstuff. You'll want your stuffed baby to be able to rest on your tuffet without falling off. Whipstitch opening closed.

7. 

   Enjoy!!

Tips & Warnings

• Yarn needles are usually blunt, but it's best to supervise children if they will be making this project.
