How To Make It
To make it easier, draw your shapes on felt before cutting
them out.
Cut out a 1" circle for the body of the turkey.
Cut out a 1/2" circle for the head of the turkey.
Cut out a heart (1 1/2" wide x 1 3/4" tall) for the feathers.
Cut a little oval shaped (1/4" wide x 1/2" long) out of red for
the gobbler.
Cut a tiny gold triangle for the beak (1/4" wide x 1/4" long).
Cut out tiny feet (use your imagination) out of gold felt
(1/2" wide x 1/4" tall).
Cut a square of felt for the back of the turkey to hold the
safety pin.
Glue round body close to the middle of the heart shaped felt
piece.
Glue the round head overlapping the top of the round body.
Add glue to the top of the wattle on the underneath side.
Pull up the bottom part of the head and slip the wattle under
it. Press down firmly. Glue 2 wiggle eyes on the head.
Glue the beak near the bottom of the head.
Glue the feet at the bottom of the body.
Turn the turkey over. Open the safety pin. Lay the square
of felt over the back (non-opening side) of the safety pin.
Glue the square in place.
Let dry. Wear and enjoy.
