Web Guide : 01 : Basic

1. First Step

Download and extract a kit.


2. Printing

The pattern size for most kits is "LETTER", but newer patterns use "LEGAL" sized paper. Check the page scaleing when printing. If the page is being scalled down then switch to "LEGAL" sized paper.


3. Cutting out the Pattern

Cut the lines around the parts. Think of the extra lines as guides to help align the parts later.


4. Tracing the Pattern

Place the peices on fabric and leave at least 1-1.5 inches between each part. Trace the outside of each part and mark the extra lines. around the edges. If numbers exist on the peices then mark them on the correct parts.

Mirroring the Peices

Each pattern only contains enough peices to make 1/2 of a toy. To make the other half just flip the peices over. Tip Mark a M(irror) or N(ormal) on the peices to tell them apart.

Seams

Around each peice trace a line 0.25 inches from the edges.

5. Cutting out the Peices

Cut out the peices on the "Seam" line.

Tip : Make two piles. One for normal peices and the other for mirrored peices.


6. Sewing

This part can be hard if it's your first time, but you'll get used to it. Just find two edges with the same number and sew them together.

7. Almost Done

You should get here once there is only one edge left to sew. Now just flip the object inside out and stuff it. Then hand stitch the last edge closed.

8. Enjoy
