How to Make a Fabric Toy
Bone for Your Dog or Puppy
For this quick and easy toy dog bone you will
need less than 1/4 of a yard of fabric. |
 |
First find or draw a dog bone
pattern about 8" X 5". You are more than welcome to use my pattern
shown to the left. Just copy and
paste the photo to a word document. Then enlarge it enough so that
is measures about 8" X 5". Print it, and you have a pattern you can use
over and over again. |
 |
Fold your fabric in half so
that you will have two dog bone pieces, one for the back and one for the
front.
Pin your dog bone pattern on your fabric.
Cut it out. |
 |
Place the pretty sides
of your dog bone together. Pin around the outer edges leaving an
opening at the bottom as shown. |
 |
Stitch around the dog bone
using the pressure foot as your guide or a 1/4" seam allowance. Notice the
opening at the bottom for turning and stuffing. |
 |
Turn the toy dog bone pretty
side out and stuff with fiberfill. Make it nice and firm so your dog
can get a hold of it to play with it.
Hand stitch the opening closed. Use
close tight stitches and double knot the beginning and the end since your
dog will be throwing this around, you want it to stay intact. |
| |
Your toy dog bone is finished.
Send us a photo of your dog and his new toy.
We'd love to see your work. |
