handmade felt mushrooms

Mushrooms have a way of charming everyone.
They show up in storybooks and cottage gardens, on cozy sweaters and woodland nurseries.
So why not stitch a few of your own?

This is a wonderful project for anyone just starting out with felt.
You will work with two foundational stitches and a handful of small pieces, which makes it a friendly place to build your hand-stitching confidence before moving on to bigger felt makes.

Our printable template and cutting machine file include three different mushrooms, ready to make in whatever colors you like.
Cut every piece by hand with a pair of detail scissors for a clean, precise edge.
Prefer to use your cutting machine? We have included an SVG cut file for your Cricut Maker or Silhouette Cameo.

Once you have finished your felt mushrooms, share them with us.
Post your photos in our crafters' community or use the hashtag #MadeWithLia on Instagram.
