I didn't take step by step photos, but basically, the kids drew something with pencil on paper first, then traced their drawing with a black Sharpie marker. Then we taped a piece of muslin fabric over the drawing and they traced it onto the fabric using a fabric marker. Finally, they colored the details with regular old Crayola crayons. I ironed their drawings with a piece of paper on top to remove the wax and leave the color behind. Then they chose a background color of felt and we cut out the shape of their stuffie. The final step (which did involve sewing!) was to sew the two pieces together and stuff. I love how they were all really creative and each made a unique stuffie.
Several of the children also made eyeglass cases, also using the patterns from Sewing School.
