Directions

1. STEP 1: Getting Ready

   Prepare your work area by assembling all the craft items you'll need for making your pillow creation, then print out the Brobee No-Sew Pillow Template.

2. STEP 2: Cutting Out the Pieces

   A grown up should cut out the template pieces and use them to cut out the pillow pieces from sheets of felt or fleece. TIPS FOR PARENTS: Either fleece or felt can be used to make these pillows, but felt works best, especially for the face details. Grown ups should cut out the pieces, while your preschool-aged helper assembles the face details using the full-color final pillow template as a guide.

3. STEP 3: Creating the Faces

   Help your child to apply the face details to the front pillow panel. A grown up should apply the glue to and place the face pieces on the body panel. Apply light pressure to ensure the pieces stay in place. Fabri-tac and similar products are quick-drying.

4. STEP 4: Assembling the Pillows

   Once the eyes, mouth, and eyebrow have been glued down, add Brobee's hair to the inside seam at the top of his head, then glue together the top by adding several beads of glue and pressing the edges together until the glue takes (about a minute). Once the top of the head has dried, begin stuffing with batting and gluing the sides together. Try not to over-stuff the pillow, as this will make it difficult to glue the sides together. Keep gluing and pressing all the edges until the pillow is sealed on all sides.
