Small pice of white fleece (or any stretchy fabric)
Small piece of pink fleece
Small piece of orange fleece
Tiny piece of black fleece
0.5cm width black ribbon
A little polyfiber
2 24 inches jacket zipper
Method :
1) Cut 2 pieces of blue fleece in the shape of flat bottom ova l (width = 18 inches, length = 15 1/2 inches), a piece of white fleece resembling the face, a piece of pink fleece in the shape of semi oval and a piece of orange piece resembling the tongue.
(Note : It would be easier to draw the pattern on a piece of paper and transfer it to the fleece for cutting).
2) With the right side of the fabric facing up, place the white fleece on top of the blue to make out the face. Trim if needed. Pin in place.
3) Sew the white and blue together using the stitch no. 10 in the Brother NV50 sewing machine with white thread (Note : Attach the correct foot for the stitch).
4) Pin the orange fleece to pink to make out the tongue. Pin in place and sew using the same stitch (No. 10) with pink thread.
5) Arrange and pin the mouth to the face. Trim if needed and sew using with pink thread using stitch no. 10.
6) Place and pin the whites for eyes in place. Sew with stitch no. 10 using black thread.
7) Place a tiny piece of oval shaped black fleece on the right side of the right eye and pin in place. Cut a 6cm long black ribbon, fold to make an inverted V and pin on the left eye. Sew in place using straight stitch.
8) Pin the bridge of the nose and whiskers in place using black ribbon Once satisfied with the shape and length, sew using straight stitch.
9) Put a little polyfiber on a small piece (~9cm x 9cm) of pink fleece. Bunch together and sew to close the opening. This will make the nose. Place between the eyes and handstitch in place.
10) Spread out a 1m x 1.3m blue fleede. Place the face of the doraemon at the upper middle and the other piece of the head at the bottom middle with the chin meeting each other.
(Note : the right side of the fabrics should be facing up)
11) Open up a jacket zipper. Starting from the crown of the doraemon, pin the side of the zipper with the pulley to left side (facing you) of the doraemon, working all the way down to the chin. The other side of the zipper (without the pulley) should be pin to the other piece of the blue fleece (without the face). Repeat with the other side.
12) Attach the zipper foot to the sewing machine and sew the zippers in place.
The doraemon pillow cum blanket is now done!!
