Oscar's Minion - How to.

So, as I had mentioned in my previous post - I created a felt minion for Oscar to go alongside his birthday presents. I made the minion using a free pattern online from Lady Joyceley's Tumblr Page which is simply perfect which I came across on Pinterest! I was a bit apprehensive about creating something using a pattern for the first time but it was easy to use and follow and I really enjoyed the challenge!
 

 

This is the final minion which both Oscar and I were really pleased with.

 

 
The body pieces sew together to form a bullet shape - I did this part on the sewing machine and the remainder by hand. I used blanket stitch to attach everything to the body except where stitching was intended to be seen as per the pattern!

I decided to make felt eyes rather than use googly eyes so the whole minion was felt with some small black buttons on the front of his dungarees.





Such an enjoyable project and I can't wait to start my next. I would  love to know if anyone gives this a go or has also made a minion?
