This Felt Pegasus is ideal for intermediate crafters. It requires a little patience and attention to detail, particularly when sewing up her flowing mane. A bit of experience with 3D stuffed animal construction and basic embroidery skills, like straight stitches and French knots, will make this project easier to manage. When gathering materials, don't forget chunky yarn for your pegasus' beautiful mane!

The Pegasus, a mythical creature from Greek mythology, symbolizes freedom, grace, and divine beauty. According to legend, Pegasus was born from Medusa's blood when she was slain by the hero Perseus. Pegasus' wings represent the power of flight and are often associated with inspiration. We hope this project inspires you to seek out wonder and magic wherever you can. 

When you create your Felt Pegasus, you'll be using a variety of techniques to bring her to life. In addition to embroidery and 3D construction, her delicate, poseable wings and fluffy hair add to the charm, making her a project you'll be proud to display or gift. This is a perfect project for those who love to bring fairytales into reality with their hands, creating a beautiful piece that will evoke wonder for years to come.

Once finished, your Felt Pegasus is ready to be admired or taken on a magical journey. However you choose to show her off, be sure to share it with us. Join our crafters' community, or inspire others on Instagram with the hashtag #MadeWithLia.

How to Make a Felt Pegasus

  1. Gather your craft tools and materials. Then download the pegasus pattern on the right hand side at the top of this post.
  2. Cut out felt according to the pattern using a Cricut Maker/Silhouette Cameo 4 or scissors.
  3. Sew the legs to the underside piece using two strands of light blue embroidery floss and a whip stitch, working from what will be the inside of the legs. Match and follow the curve of the leg openings, and ensure that the legs are facing the right way.
  4. Repeat for all of the legs.
