About this pattern

Rainy days can be made fun with Chloe Hailwood's indoor football.

Simple to sew and soft to kick, toss, and throw – this football is the ultimate boredom buster. With spring showers making outdoor play a bit of a hit-or-miss these coming months, this creation allows the fun to continue indoors without fear of knocking over valuable lamps and vases! Stitching this soft toy should be stress-free as long as care is taken to ensure each template is cut out and tacked to the fabric with precision. Any differences in the length of edges will make it difficult for the pieces to fit together well when sewing.

Essentials

Fabric: fat quarters, 1.5 each, five varying prints
Embroidery thread, matching
Toy filling

Top sewing tip

When laid out in the correct positions, take a photo, so that whilst stitching together you can easily remember what goes where.
