Brown and burgundy felt scraps

Directions

Step 1
Print the templates for Olivia and the letters. Trace the templates onto the felt, referring to the photo as a color guide, and cut out the pieces. Set them aside.
Step 2
Cut two rectangles of felt, about 16 inches by about 24 inches.
Step 3
Cut another rectangle from the batting, slightly smaller than the felt rectangles, depending on how wide you want the margins to be.
Step 4
Sandwich the batting between the two felt rectangles. Pin.
Step 5
Thread the needle with embroidery thread and make large stitches around the perimeter of the batting. Then glue together the two felt rectangles along their perimeter.
Step 6
Glue the nose, eyes, nostrils, and mouth to the Olivia head piece. Glue the head to the mat. Then glue each of the letters to the mat to spell "Welcome."
