Looking for a new project that will ruffle some feathers—in the best way possible? Meet our cute and cuddly turkey sewing pattern! Perfect for Thanksgiving decor, gift giving, or just adding a little gobble-gobble goodness to your home. Plus, it’s as fun to make as it is to display!

What’s So Special About This Turkey Pattern?

This pattern features soft, cozy fleece fabric, giving our feathered friend a plush, snuggle-ready look. You’ll create “feathers” by cutting ties across the top and securing them for a playful, textured effect. And the best part? It’s a simple stitch-along-the-bottom construction, making it an excellent project for beginners and seasoned sewists alike!

Here’s What You’ll Need 🧵

• Fleece fabric – Choose traditional browns and tans for a classic look or get creative with colors for a fun twist on your turkey!

• Felt fabric - Scraps of yellow for the feet, orange for the beak, red for the waddle, brown for the head and wings and black for the eyes.

• Scissors – Sharp enough to make clean cuts for those feathered ties!

• Sewing machine – For a quick stitch along the bottom, but you can also hand-sew if you prefer.

• Fiberfill – Give your turkey that squishy, plump look.

• Glue - Fabric glue or hot glue gun to secure the felt pieces to the front of the fabric. You can also use fusible web to iron the pieces in place.

Get Creative with Your Turkey’s Style 🎨

Our turkey is adorable on its own, but if you're feeling adventurous, try these fun embellishments:

• Faux Feathers – For an extra flourish, add a few colorful faux feathers to your fleece ties. Or tie strips of fleece fabric in other colors to the existing ties.

• Googly Eyes or Felt Eyes – Bring a little personality to the face.

• Tiny Felt Hat or Pilgrim Accessories – Make your turkey holiday-ready!
