Step 1: Print Pattern on A4/Letter

Step 2: Cut Out All Shapes

Use a pencil, chalk, or just pin the pattern to the felt sheet and cut out all shapes for the project:

2 pieces of each color
4 pieces of green color
2 pieces for the caterpillar face
and face elements

Step 3: To Embroider a Face, Use Embroidery Threads or Crochet Yarn

We make all details from felt. It will be safe and suitable for small kids.

You can make bigger or smaller eyes/nose/mouth or embroider brows, it will make every toy unique!

Step 4: Stitch a Segment

Stitch all around with a Blanket Stitch. It is a decorative stitch that looks nice on both sides. When 2 cm/1 inch remains, stuff with filling and finish stitching. Tie a knot and hide the end of the thread inside.
