Directions For Piggy Earphone Cable Tie

Step 1: Gather the materials needed

Step 2: Draw a small silhouette of a pig head with ears

Step 3: Cut the pig pattern

Step 4: Use the pig pattern to cut the pink craft felt

Cut two identical shapes for this.

Step 5: Cut a small strip of light blue craft felt

The dimensions should be 5 to 7 centimeters long and 2 centimeters thick.

Step 6:  Align the ears

Align the pink pig heads you cut in step 4 and sew them together using blanket stitch.

Step 7: Align the blue strip and sew

Align the blue strip below the pig head and continue blanket stitching the whole tie.

Step 8:   Add the ears

Cut a pair of small ears from the fuchsia pink craft felt and glue this on the ear part of the pink pig head.

Step 9:   Cut a small oblong from the fuchsia pink felt

This will be the snout of the pig. Cut a pair of small circles that will serve as the nose hole of the pig.

Step 10:  Add the nose

Hot glue the nose hole to the pig’s nose and hot glue the snout on the face of the pig. This should be situated in the middle of the face.

Step 11:  Make a pair of eyes

Cut a small oblong piece from the white felt. Cut a smaller circle from the light blue felt and cut an even smaller circle from the black felt. This should be done in pairs. The white is the eye, the blue is the eyeball and the black is the pupil of the eyes.

Step 12:   Cut a small piece of velcro

Step 13:   Attach the velcro

Hot glue the velcro to the back of the pig’s head and on the opposite end of the light blue strip.
