Sew a Felt Mushroom tutorial

I LOVE mushrooms. I love sewing them and drawing them and taking their portraits when I find them in the woods! Mushrooms have always been a favorite little dear motif, I think they will always find their way into my designs! I've been sewing and sharing these little felt mushrooms for YEARS. Looking back through photos, I made my first ones in 2010 (seriously?!) and shared the pattern online.

Since then I've shown friends and kids how to make them, and recently taught classes at my local library, and I can tell you this: when I show someone how easy it is to sew something this cute, I see them visibly RELAX and SMILE when they pick up felt and scissors, and settle into making a unique one of their own! I've gotten so much happy feedback from people who just loved learning to make them and enjoyed the peaceful time they spent hand sewing.

There really is something magical about stitching these sweet little things and I thought it was high time to share with you how easy it is as well.
SO I made a new video! You can find it right here on my YouTube channel, come join me as I walk you through sewing your own little felt mushroom. 

They make perfect ornaments, little pincushions or gifts for a special friend, or invite a friend over and make them together!

You can decorate your mushroom however you like, every one will be unique. This is a great way to use up felt scraps, or if you'd like to get everything you need in one place, I've also created this fun felt mushroom kit, grab one today in the little dear shop!
Have fun sewing mushrooms! xo
