Make a... felt-framed fox

You’ue got the bits - here’s how toput them together

Step 1

STITCH your fox design centrally on to the aida supplied in your kit. To find the centre, fold the aida in half, then in half again. Match up this point with the middle of the chart below.

When you’ve finished stitching, attach the bead nose.

Step 2

SANDWICH your stitched piece between the two felt layers and trim away any excess aida. For an easy option, secure the felt pieces using PVA glue. Alternatively, use a decorative running stitch to attach the felt pieces to the aida.
