- a small amount of flannel or fleece
- coordinating thread
- rice to fill them
Step 2: Sew around the edges on your machine, leaving the bottoms open to fill later. Before you turn them right side out, trim the edges to reduce bulk, especially where the thumb meets the mitten.
Step 3: Topstitch around the mitten, still leaving the bottom open.
Step 4: Fill with rice. Make sure you don't fill them too full. My husband said he measured out 3 oz. for each, which is between 1/4 c. and 1/2 c. Don't mind my daughter here in all her snow gear!
Step 5: Before sewing them shut, clip your edges to reduce bulk. Also, putting a pin down low where the rice is helps the mitten to stay nice and flat in the machine.
Step 6: Stitch the bottoms closed. And you're done!
Here's the link to the poem we put with them. I had some cute clip art in there too, but I guess Google Docs hates clip art.
Most teachers have some sort of outside bus duty or recess duty, so I chose these with that in mind. I hope my kids' teachers enjoy these! Best of all, they were super cheap and easy to make!
