You can tuck this felt quail into your holiday tree, or place it on your mantel with our crepe paper pine cone branches. Some pops of red from our felt pomegranates would also be really pretty. In addition to using this stuffie as winter decor, you can craft it as a gift for kids or any bird lover!

Skill level: Intermediate.

Stitches used: Blanket, whip, detached chain, and feather stitch.

Crafting tip: For an easier version, you can skip the decorative embroidery.

How to Make a Felt Quail Stuffie

  1. Gather your tools and materials. Then download the pattern below.
  2. Cut out felt according to template using scissors or a cutting machine with a rotary blade.
  3. Match up the edges and whip stitch on the body details to the main body using 1 strand of floss to match each color of felt.
  4. Flip the body piece over and trim off the excess felt from near the body’s outer edges, leaving enough of an overlap by the stitches. This is to prevent bulk when sewing up the seams later.
