Napoleon the Mouse

Easy!

$4.99

- +

Meet Napoleon. He's a very small mouse - with a very big heart.

Settle in for a bit of hand-sewing with lovely wool felt. Stitching wool felt is a joy - a total delight for the eyes and the fingers.

Plus - hand-sewing is portable. Take it with you to soccer games, Girl Scout meetings, you name it. It's also faster than you think.

You can stitch up Napoleon just a couple of hours!

This is exclusively available as a PDF pattern, delivered instantly and ready to print onto letter-size paper. No shipping costs and no waiting! If you're not sure what a PDF pattern is, you'll find more info here.

Pattern Details

You Get. . .

    Size

    Napoleon is just under 3 inches tall. He points his nose up in the air to make himself seem taller, but it doesn’t really work.

    Difficulty

    Easy! Appropriate for beginners and kids. Can you whipstitch? Then you can do this! (Not sure if you can whipstitch? The pattern includes a link to a video showing how - and I teach the stitch to kids as young as 3. You can totally do it!)

    Permissions

    This pattern is not available for commercial resale. That means you may not copy and sell or digitally distribute the pattern or any variation of the pattern

    For example, you may not print the pattern and sell those copies.

    Yes!

    Talk to Me

    If you're hiring out any part of the process, please get in touch and we'll work out a fair licensing agreement.

    For example, if you want to hire someone to die cut all the felt pieces, or attach all the hanging loops, those two scenarios would require a licensing agreement. Get in touch! I'm easy to talk to. :-) smile@shinyhappyworld.com

    Cute little guy!

    Absolutely love this pattern! Pattern pieces are clearly labeled, directions are easy to understand. The ears add so much personality! Very fun to stitch. In fact, I made five!
