Felt Food


This was an incredibly easy and super fun impromptu project I did with Bella. Feeding into her obsession with play food, we made three types of pasta out of some felt we had on hand. She was exceptionally proud of her duties as Official Stuffer and Thread Trimmer. I especially like the red thread we used on the brown ravioli.
Square Ravioli
Cut two 3" squares
Sew together three sides, leaving a 1/4" side seam
Stuff with fill
Complete last seam to close entirely
Cut edges with pinking shears

Half-Circle Ravioli
Cut 3" circles
Fold in Half
Sew together 3/4 of the way, leaving 1/4" side seam
Stuff with fill
Complete last seam to close entirely
Cut round edges with pinking shears

Bow-Tie Pasta
Cut 3"x1" rectangles
Cut short edges with pinking shears
Pinch in the middle
Hand sew middle fold
