Pictured above is a Gleeful Guinea Pig Plush you can stitch and you can find the embroidery pattern for the guinea pig in Stitch Love: Sweet Creatures Big & Small. Here we'll show you how to make a felt lettuce leaf.
Note: Before you start this project, be sure to download the Gleeful Guinea Pig Lettuce Leaf.
Step-By-Step Directions
- Cut out two leaf shapes from green felt for each lettuce leaf you make
- Embroider the veins onto one of the leaves with back-stitch and three strands of green embroidery floss. Then, carefully tear away the tracing paper.
- Hold the two leaf shapes together and stitch around the edge with running stitch and three strands of green embroidery floss. Hide the knot between the layers.
- You have now created a lettuce leaf for your guinea pig!
