This no~sew project, well you can sew a little if you want, is quick and easy to cook up.  It’s inspiration came from a friend as we were brainstorming fun creative toys that could also be educational.

The instruction kit comes with detailed directions, the ’soup can’ fabric panel and either an alphabet fabric panel or small foam letters.

Just like any good soup you will need to add some more ingredients.  It  takes a small amount of cotton batting, a small cardboard lidded container, a button and the best ‘binder’ to use is a good tacky glue.

The letters & numbers are ironed onto felt with some double~sided fusing and then cut out.  If you want to zig-zag around the edges you can.  I used several different colors of felt to make it as colorful as I could.   It takes about an hour to make and should dry for several hours before playing with it.

Note:  The fabric panels were printed by spoonflower.   Enjoy!
