Felt Doll Pattern Inspired by Frida Kahlo
A tribute to an art icon, in miniature! A crown of flowers, a green coat with an embroidered pattern and a yellow skirt capture Frida's spirit. A unique gift idea for art lovers and fans of Mexican culture.
What the finished toy looks like
A portrait inspired by Frida Kahlo, with a crown of flowers in her hair, a green coat with an embroidered pattern and a yellow skirt. She has her signature brows, red earrings and round cheeks. The finish has a crisp, paper-cut look.
What you'll need
- Felt sheets in the colours shown in the photo (fabric, craft foam or coloured paper work too)
- Embroidery thread and a needle, or fabric glue if you'd rather not sew
- Small, sharp scissors
- A little toy stuffing for a softer finish (optional)
- Beads or buttons for details, if you like
How the templates work
The templates for Felt Girl Inspired by Frida Kahlo are printed in Volume 4, ready to cut out of the book. There is no need for a photocopier or printer. Every pattern is printed twice, so you can cut one set of templates and keep the other for later, or fix a mistake without starting over.
Inside you'll also find a photo of the finished toy and step-by-step instructions you can follow even if you have never sewn before.
