How to Sew a Stuffed Felt Shamrock

Supplies

• Green Felt
• Shamrock Pattern
• Needle
• Thread (2 different shades of green)
• Cotton stuffing or Poly-fil
• Scissors

✅ This is a great source for getting lots of different colored felt for sewing projects.

Instructions

Step 1

Print and cut out the shamrock pattern of your choice. The template includes 3 different sizes.

Trace and cut out 2 pieces of shamrock patterns from the felt to make one shamrock plushie. 

Step 2

Use a color of thread about one shade darker or lighter than the felt for contrast.

Hand stitch along the vein lines of the shamrock. 

You can stitch the vein lines on both shamrock felt pieces or you can stitch one, however you wish. The stitched one will be placed to the front side of the plush. 

Step 3

Place both shamrock felt cutouts together, keeping the stitched one in the front. Using a coordinating color of thread, stitch around the sides to join the shamrock patterns together.

I used a flat blanket stitch around the side. 

Keep a small opening for stuffing. 

Step 4

Stuff the shamrock as plush or as thin as you’d like.  

Step 5

Stitch the small opening closed and tie a knot in the thread to secure.
