DIY project -fabric panel softies

I just love these super cute printed panel softies. You can find these great panels at craft stores such as Spotlight or online. This one i picked up the other day and have been obsessed with making them since.





With an hour of spare time and a few supplies you can make one yourself. They make great gifts or a sweet decoration for a child's room. Here's how:

SUPPLIES:
FABRIC PANEL
POLY FIBRE STUFFING
COTTON TREAD
SCISSORS
SEWING MACHINE
NEEDLE

1. Gather all materials
2. Lay the panel out and cut around the printed border of the design (most panels have a seem allowance already factored into the design)

3. Lay the two printed (right sides) together and pin in place. See with the sewing machine leaving a seem allowance as per instructions the panel, remember to leave a space at the bottom for stuffing.

4. Turn inside out do both printed sides are showing.
5. Stuff with stuffing.






6. Stitch with needle and cotton to close the space.





DONE!!
