Cut two pieces of white felt for body in a pear shape then blanket stitch together with red embroidery thread and stuff with cotton balls before closing. Make two “x” with black embroidery thread for eyes and two straight stitches for mouth. Tie a small scrap of fabric around neck and glue into place. Glue on pin backing and allow drying time.

Materials:Scarecrow Pin 

  • Very small straw hats
  • Yellow wool
  • Small piece white cotton
  • Plaid material
  • Pin backing
  • Glue
  • Jute
  • Small flower for hat
  • A couple cotton balls

 

Start by cutting two pieces of plaid fabric approximately 6 inches by 3 inches then fold them into a 6 inch by 1 inch length piece and ironing in place. Tie the two pieces together with jute in center like an “x”. Then tie the ends of each with a tiny bit of fabric to form legs and arms. Then take white cotton and cut a small circle for head then stuff with cotton balls and tie with jute to the upper part of body. It’s a good idea to glue to make it more secure. Using yellow wool form a tuff of hair and glue to top of head then glue on straw hat. Add a fall colored flower to top of hat for an added touch. Finally, glue pin backing to back of body. (I slipped mine under the waist tie and glued it in place to add a bit more stability).

  • Canvas materialBunny Pin
  • Cardboard
  • Hot glue and gun
  • White glue
  • Black permanent marker
  • Black embroidery thread
  • Small amount of quilting batting
  • Small rose flowers
  • Mop string
  • Colored paper (same color as flower used)
  • Pin backing 

Start by cutting the bunny head pattern shape from cardboard to be used as the base of your pin.  Then cut one bunny heads slightly bigger than pattern for the front and one the same size for the back out of canvas. Cut one bunny head shape out of the quilting batting and glue to cardboard base headpiece. Then glue the front piece of canvas to cardboard and overlapping slightly to back. (If you cut small slits in the overlapped headpiece it will wrap nicely when glued on.) Then glue on back piece of canvas to finish up the look. Now you have a puffy head shape. Using the ear pattern cut out a set of ears from canvas and pinch in the center then glue in place. Now take two strands black thread and apply a small amount of white glue all over and allow drying until thread becomes stiff. When dry, glue in the center of head as whiskers and cut a small heart shaped nose from paper and glue on top. Draw on eyes and small mouth with black marker. Then take a small piece of mop string and tie into a bow and glue to bottom of pin. Add a small rose to top of head and finally glue on pin backing. Very Easter Parade looking!!
