Why Make a Felt Santa?
A felt Santa ornament is beginner-friendly, quick to sew, and customisable. It works as a handmade Christmas decoration, a mantelpiece feature, or a thoughtful gift.
What You’ll Need
- Felt sheets in red, white/cream, peach-pink, and accent colours
- Printable felt Santa pattern (included in the PDF tutorial)
- Embroidery scissors for precise cutting
- Needle and thread
- Aleene’s Tacky Glue (or similar fabric glue)
- Hollow fibre stuffing, kapok, or cotton wool
- Optional: sequins, braid, buttons, belt buckle, or pom-pom
Step-by-Step Tutorial
Inside the Felt Santa PDF tutorial, you’ll learn how to:
- Cut out your pieces neatly and accurately
- Sew and stuff the cone-shaped body
- Attach the brim, face, beard, nose, moustache, and arms
- Add final decorations to complete your Santa
Tips for Best Results
- Fuse lightweight interfacing to the back of your felt before cutting (not on the hat brim).
- Trace shapes with a heat-erasable pen and iron away marks before assembly.
- Use fabric glue for precision instead of a glue gun on small details.
