Project Instructions
Enlarge or reduce penguin shape to the size you want. Print and cut out.
Trace pattern (download below) onto each piece of black felt and cut out.
Lay felt penguin pieces together and punch holes around the outside.
Cut large belly oval, eyes and feet from the pattern and trace onto sticky-back felt. Cut out and attach to the body of the penguin.
Use yarn and a large-eye plastic sewing needle to make a running stitch around the hole punches. Leave a 4" opening for stuffing.
Fill penguin with fiberfill. Finish sewing together and tie ends of yarn together.
Braid yarn to make a scarf that will fit around the penguin’s neck.
