Join me for some furry fun and learn how to make handpaws! The first 30-45 minutes we’ll be covering sewing basics. After this we’ll move on to reading a pattern, prepping our materials, and learning to hand-sew faux fur.

There will be a small fee to cover the materials, but you’re welcome to bring your own and waive the fee. You’ll need to buy / download the pattern beforehand, print it, and bring it with you. A free pattern is also available and linked below. The class itself is free.

​

Patterns:

(Paid) Shaped 5-digit handpaw pattern by Marices 
(Free) Simple 5-digit handpaw pattern by Matrices 

​

If you would like to use a different pattern, please let me know! I’d be happy to contact the pattern designer for permission to use their pattern in my class. The default is handpaws but you’re welcome to make handhooves, handclaws, etc.
Please note that the linked patterns are sized for the average adult. Please follow the recommendations in the pattern / tutorial you’ve selected and resize accordingly, if needed.

​

Color choices (main) – select up to two: 1⁄2” Pile: White, Ivory, Cream, Latte, Amber, Saddle, Classic Rust, Cafe, Brown, Platinum, Pewter, Black  1” Pile: Spotty Leopard Print, White, Cream, Latte, Saddle Tan, Platinum, Pewter, Black

Color choices (paw pads / toes) – select one: I have a large selection of colors. Black will be the default but let me know if you’d like something else and I’ll see what I have!

Cost for materials is $10 and includes enough faux fur to make a set of handpaws, some breathable polyester mesh to make a liner (faux fur is scratchy on the inside!), polyester thread, a needle, and a white gel pen for marking.
