Adventure Time ornament tutorial 2

how to pin large pieces to felt (this one photo is of Finn's head, instructions are about Jake, sorry about that)

 

5. Put the pattern face up on your felt's right side** and cut it out. Don't worry if the shape looks a little jacked up when you take the pattern piece off, like mine does. It happens! We're going to fix all the pieces in a minute.

**TIP: If you've worked with sewing patterns before, you've probably heard this term; most fabrics aren't identical on the front and back. Felt does sort of have a right and wrong side; the wrong side is shinier, and the fibers are more visible. So it's better to put that part inside your ornament.

6. Now you're going to cut the back of Jake's head. Simply flip your pattern piece over and cut again. (It's much easier to be precise if you only cut one thickness at a time.)
