Recommended Supplies
You'll only need a handful of basic sewing supplies.
Fabric
A soft fleece or minky fabric creates a cuddly carrot with a plush finish. For the leafy top, fleece, felt, or quilting cotton all work beautifully depending on the look you'd like.
Stuffing
Use a quality polyester fiberfill to give your carrot a soft, full shape without becoming lumpy.
Thread
Choose an orange thread for the carrot body and green thread for the leaves. Matching thread helps the finished project look polished.
Basic Sewing Tools
Sewing machine
Fabric scissors or rotary cutter
Pins or sewing clips
Hand sewing needle
Fabric marker
Sewing Tips
A few simple tricks will help your carrot look its best:
Add stuffing gradually instead of all at once to create a smooth shape.
Roll the finished carrot between your hands after stuffing to evenly distribute the filling.
Slightly overstuff the bottom for a full, rounded appearance.
Press the leaf pieces before sewing if you're using cotton fabric.
