The kid of the author of this DIY tutorial is in love with panda bears and playing a character at the moment. Yours too? Then try making these animal masks for him or her! You’ll need felt sheets (color depending on animal), iron-on interfacing, yarn, pen, scissors, elastic cord, eyelets + hammer, black embroidery thread, needle and sewing machine. First you need to cut out the pattern (we’re making panda bear) using the template which you can find on bkids.typepad.com. Put the pattern on top of the interfacing and trace it, then cut out the mask. Cut the pattern in pieces and start sewing the mask using the zig zag stitch to hem the edges. To add the mask a hand sewn finish you can add some decorative embroidery. As it’s done, attach the elastic cord. Enjoy!
