Puut, puut, puut... here come our funny chickens!

Effortlessly design the colourful feathered fowl according to your own taste. Children are sure to have great fun making the chickens and then hanging them up.

That's how the crazy chickens are made:
At the beginning cut out the templates and Felt transfer them to the one you want. Now cut out the individual parts.

For each chicken lay two cut parts of the body on top of each other. Then cut off about 50 cm for each chicken, thread from Embroidery twist it into the needle and sew the edges of the body loosely with the "loop stitch". Leave about 1 cm open so that you can fill the animals with cotton wool. Sew up the opening after filling.

Now glue the Wobbly eyes, beaks and the cockscomb with the on Handicraft glue the bodies. Shorten the cockscomb Chenille wire to the desired length and screw it in a little bit. Push the legs into the felt bodies and thread beads over the end of the wires. Fasten both with a little Handicraft glue. bit. Repeat this procedure with the Feathers beads on the side.

Loop stitch: First, your thread is fixed to the felt fabric with a knot. Prick the needle from above Felt and place the thread over the tip of the needle. Tighten the thread and a loop is created which secures the edge of the felt.

Would you like to make the chickens as pendants? No problem - just thread a thin thread into the sewing needle and stitch it into the back of the chicken. Now knot the two ends of the thread so that you have a loop or a single thread for the suspension. Now you can decorate your Easter bouquet!
