- To make the cute chick, cut a rectangle of yellow felt that is big enough to wrap round your finger with a centimetre to spare.
- Cut a curved ‘W’ into one short end so the sides form a round head shape when folded back.
- Use embroidery thread to sew on small round black felt eyes and an orange beak shape. (pic a)
- Cut out two semi-circle wing shapes with feathers cut into the straight side. Sew the curved outer edges onto the body of the puppet. (pic b)
- Use small scissors to cut out three little flowers from brightly coloured felt and stitch to the body with tiny crosses. (pic c)
- Fold the sides of the puppet to the middle and stitch along the top curve with running stitch. You can cut out a small orange cockscomb and attach to the head at this point. Stitch up the back seam and pop on your finger. (pic d)
