Felt Robot Monstar

Materials Needed:
• felt (assorted colors)
• embroidery needle
• embroidery thread
• googly eyes
• fiber fill
• hot glue & hot glue gun



To make this little robot monstar I started off with a sheet of light blue felt and a darker blue felt (for the back of this monstar). I drew the shape of the monstar that I wanted and then cut out both the light blue and dark blue felt giving me 2 of the same shape pieces. Next I placed the mouth and heart on and sewed them to the front of the light blue felt.

Then I grab both the light blue felt cutout and the darker blue felt cut out and I put them wrong sides together (right sides facing out). Then I got white embroidery thread and my embroidery needle and did a blanket stitch all around the robot, stuffing it with fiber fill as I went (you may need a chopstick to push fiber fill into smaller areas). When I finished sewing all the way around I got 2 different sized googly eyes and hot glued them on. Voila a cute little robot monstar!
