Cutting and Sewing the Frog

Friday

15Jun2007

Wash, dry, and press the fabric for the frog.
Using the Purl Frog Template, cut two Frog Bodies from the fabric.
Pin the two pattern pieces right sides together.
Stitch a 1/4 inch seam around the frog, beginning at the inseam of one leg and finishing at the inseam of the other, leaving a gap at the base of the body. Remember to back stitch at the beginning and end of the seam.
Clip into the curves of the arms and legs to ease the fabric a bit, then turn the frog right side out.

I absolutely love your site and RSS feed. I look forward to every one. There is
so much to explore. I have always loved to give handmade gifts since starting to sew at the age of 7 at my grandmothers house. She had a little shop in her home.
She did a lot of alterations plus an obsession with fabric. It has to be where I got
it from. I am now 47 and wish she were still here to get on the internet. She has been gone for 26 years.
This frog pattern is precious. Thanks for sharing! My new grand baby was born
12/23/08 and his room has a frog theme to it. This will be a fun surprise. I made all his bedding and curtains.
