D.I.Y. Secret Pocket in a Stuffed Animal (Stuffie)

     Good Day Happy Kittens!

    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 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!
