My boys love Angry Birds. I thought I would make something fun for them for Christmas. Then I was asked to do a local Bazaar. I thought they would make a great gift for a cute little guy or gal. So I decided to get a jump on it. Here is my take on Angry birds the bean bag toss.
The birds are all 2 dimensional and the piggies are 3 dimensional.
Step 1: First I ironed Pellon to one side of the felt.
2: I cut the birdies from the templates below. And stitched around the edges. Leaving a small hole for the poly fill pellets.
3: Then put them back through the machine to close them.
4: I then cut out the eyes, beaks and brows by hand.
5:Then glued eyes, beaks and brows with my trusty glue gun.
The piggies were a little more work. I wanted them to be able to sit on the blocks. I sewed 3 small circles together so that they would have a bottom gusset to sit on. Then hand stitched the eyes, nose and mouth onto the fronts. I think next time I am going to make the piggies out of wooden doll heads. Paint them green and free hand the eyes and mouths.

Update for Piggies
Add a set of block and some special little guy or gal will be busy all afternoon building and tossing birds.
I thought this would be a great birthday or Christmas gift!
