The Ocean Friends Softie patterns are a perfect way to teach kids to sew over the summer! They are designed with increasing difficulty and teach new skills with each pattern.
Patricia Starfish is the easiest Ocean Friends Softie pattern. This can be made from any fabric and is perfect for a beginner sewing project. You can embellish it with buttons or one of the digital designs that comes in the bundle. Femke kept this one simple in striped fabric.
Shelly Seashell has two different options: quilted or pintucked front. This would make a great pillow for a beach themed room! Carmen's seashell looks so soft and cozy!
Fiona sewed this quilted seashell version to coordinate with a crushed velvet starfish.
Sandy Sand Dollar teaches reverse applique! Lindsay sewed this one in the smallest size. It also has digital designs for iron on vinyl if you want to keep it simple.
Each of these patterns also has a quilted play mat size option. One of our testers, Carol, actually came up with this idea!
A little fun background- this pattern evolved from starfish rice bags that were favors at a Little Mermaid themed bridal shower. The small size of each of these would be great filled with rice or flax seeds to make a hot/cold pack!
