How to make a recycled Pumy


Supplies:
Helmar Glue
Old Tshirt (orange or you can hand dye orange)
Westcott Non Stick Scissors
Straw
Bread Ties (2)
White T-Shirt scrap (for face)
Embroidery floss & needle
Fade out Marker

Take your T-shirt and cut it into strips. Scrunch up some of the strips to make a ball and start wrapping the remaining strips around the ball glue posts down with the Helmar as you go.

Now you have your Pumy head


Cut 2 - 1 " pieces of the straw and glue on the bottom of Pumy's head for his feet.


Cut 1" pieces of the straw then cut it in half so you have two pieces.

cut the hands


Glue hands on the side of Pumy's head -I tucked mine in the t-shirt then glue in place


take the bread ties and wrap them around your finger to create a loop then tuck them in the t shirt and glue in place on the top of pumy's head


with your Fade marker make a Pumy face on the white tshirt


Embroider the face- it might be helpful to put a piece of stabilizer on the back of the t-shirt while embroidering.


I just did a satin stitch and some french knots
