Today I will be showing you how to put a secret pocket inside a stuffed animal. I've seen these for sale and they call them Stuffies. ( https://www.stuffies.com/)
It's a super fun a cute idea! Enjoy the tutorial!
Here's what you need:
1. Fabric
2. Sewing Machine (You will need a zipper foot)
3. Needle and Thread ( And things that go with it: Scissors, pins, ect. ect. )
4. Stuffed Animal
5. Matching Zipper
Step 1: Get all the needed items together
Step 1: Get all the needed items together
Step 2: Cut out two pieces of fabric, both of the same size
Step 3: Lay the two pieces of fabric together, so that the not so colorful sides are on the outside
(inside-out)
Step 4: Sew together three sides
Don't turn right-side-out!
Step 5: Hem the top
Step 6: Sew on the zipper ( This is where the zipper foot comes in handy)
Step 7: Cut a straight line the length of the pocket
Note: Cut a little smaller and if you need more room you can always cut more.
Step 8: Take out some stuffing
Step 9: Place the pocket in the hole and hand stitch together. Blind stitch works the best!
Now you're done!
Remember your stuffed friend is going to need a little extra TLC!
The zipper is nearly invisible!
You can put any thing you like in it! It's super fun and easy!
I hope you enjoyed making this and I will see you very soon!
