Monster Softie Pattern Tutorial:

1- Assemble and cut out the Pattern

You can find instructions on how to assemble the pattern here.

Assemble the pattern. Now it’s time to design your monster! Choose the body, then the horns, then the eyes, mouth and teeth. Now choose the fabric that you want to use for each of those items.

Next Cut out the pieces – cut two of the body. (check the nap of the cuddle to make sure it’s going in the same direction.

Cut out the horns (cut the amount specified on the pattern, cut out same from cereal bag if desired.)

Cut out the eyes, pupils, mouth and teeth.

Note: you can use a circle cutter to make this part easier. Also feel free to free hand parts if you like! The pattern is only a suggestion.

2 – Applique the Face

Assemble the eyes first. Temporarily adhere the inner eye to the outer eye using a glue stick. Sew on using a medium zig zag stitch along the edge. Repeat for the rest of the eye.

Now using the glue stick, glue the eye to the body exterior. Sew on using a zig zag stitch along

Use this same method apply the mouth to the body and then the teeth.
