included a couple circus tents and a ticket booth. Set two contained the first few characters (ringleader, strongman, and circus girl.) Be sure to check those out as well, if you missed them! Today, I bring you a set of silly clowns and will continue the series over the next couple months with a few more characters, animals, and vehicles so be sure to follow along! And, if you are enjoying these finger puppets, don’t miss the woodland finger puppets* we designed for One Thimble. Supplies needed:
- The Pattern
- Felt (skin tone, white, black, pink, bright pink, blue, light blue, red, brown)
- Embroidery thread to match
- Scissors (these* are my favorite for cutting precisely)
- Freezer paper (optional – see my tutorial on using freezer paper to precisely cut your pattern)
To sew the first clown:
- Cut all of the pieces from felt
- Sew the white undershirt to the front body piece
- Cut all of the pieces from felt
- Sew the white undershirt to the front body piece
- Sew the hair to the sides of the head, overlapping the face just a little (I double up the hair and blanket stitch the top edge for durability)
- Sew the yellow jacket pieces over the white shirt
