Monster Doll Tutorial {free pattern}

64 Shares

Here is a quick tutorial on how to make these Monster Dolls with a free pattern. I created a batch of these to accompany my boys’ birthday party invitations. Each invitee got to keep a silly monster of their very own!

A Monster Mash?

I began by creating a template {in purple} and cutting monster parts out of felt material.

Then I traced the template onto my green flannel and cut out two sides {monster front and back}.

I pinned my monster parts onto one of the sides.

And began sewing my parts on. Sewing circles? Go slowly as you guide your fabric through your sewing machine. For the smaller circles I stopped sewing with my needle through the fabric, lifted my sewing foot thingy {sorry I don’t know what it’s called lol}, turned my fabric, put the foot thingy down and continued sewing.

When I finished sewing my monster parts onto one side, I pinned the right sides of my front and back together. I sewed my sides together, about 1/4 cm from the edge, leaving a 1″ hole open. I turned my doll inside out, filled with stuffing and hand sewed the 1″ hole closed {sorry I forgot to take pictures of this!} A Monster Lineup!
