Sew the CHIN & NECK PIECES to the FACE & NOSE PIECES from G- B – E – B – G.Ĭhoose ONE FRILL OPTION for each Triceratops. Sew the CHIN PIECE to the NECK PIECE from B – F- B. TIP: This is very important because it makes the BIG HORNS ‘stand up’ and stop them flopping to the sides.įold the FACE PIECES with the fabric right sides together at the face darts and sew them closed. TIP: Don’t just sew normally over the wire/chenille stick – it can snap your needle and damage your eyes! Turn the wheel to ‘walk’ your machine over the wires! Fold the ends of the wire to each side and sew them to the seams on each side of the SMALL HORN.įold the BIG HORNS to the middle (towards the FOREHEAD PIECES) so that you can sew a line of stitches across the base of each BIG HORN. Sew the FOREHEAD, FACE and NOSE PIECES together from C – D – A – E (with the HORN in between). Continue pinning the FACE PIECES together, with the SMALL HORN in between from D – A and pin the NOSE PIECES together between A and E.

Pin the FOREHEAD PIECE and other FACE PIECE together, with the other BIG HORN in between from C – D. Pin and sew the other BIG HORN to the other FACE PIECE, as before. Pin the SMALL HOR N to the same FACE PIECE. Sew the FOREHEAD PIECE to the FACE PIECE, from C – D, but do NOT sew to the edge of the FOREHEAD PIECE – stop at point D. Pin the FOREHEAD PIECE to the FACE PIECE, with the BIG HORN in between. Sew the BIG HORN in place with a 3mm(⅛inch) seam allowance to make sure it won’t slip as you sew the head together. Pin one of the BIG HORNS to one of the FACE PIECES, using the single dot pattern marking to guide you. Sew the NOSE PIECES to the FACE PIECES from A – B. Stuff the SMALL HORN with toy stuffing and pin it closed at the straight edge. Trim the ends of the wire so they stick out of the horn by 12mm (½ inch). I have a post about toy safetyon my blog with more toy safety tips and guidelines.įold a piece of wire/chenille stick in half and push the folded end into the SMALL HORN. TIP: I leave this step out for children under 3 years (for safety reasons). Trim the seams at the ‘tip’ of the SMALL HORN, then turn it right sides out. Sew the SMALL HORN PIECES together (1 horn). Stuff the BIG HORNS with toy stuffing and pin them closed at the straight edge. Trim the seam allowance at the ‘tip’ of the BIG HORN PIECES, then turn them right sides out. Sew the BIG HORN PIECES together in pairs to make 2 horns.
