sewn mice

I've gotten into making mice and they're fun to make. Here's how: cut a rain drop shape from any soft material you would like to use, then fold in half and sew along the top from the nose. Leave a space to stuff the mouse at the other end. Once it is stuffed sew over the hole and make sure you are stitching the tail too or it will fall out. For the tail I use embroidery thread and make it into a long braid. Last of all, sew on a nose and some eyes.

This is a mouse family. On these mice, the sewn edge is on the bottom. I used to sew them like that, but now I don't because they can't stand up. They would always fall on their side.
