Beanbag Whale
Make a beanbag whale with a ocean background.

You need:

• Whale Pattern
• One Piece of Felt
• Scrap of Black Felt
• Fabric Glue
• Scissors
• One Piece of Craft Foam or Cardboard
• Foamie Sealife Stickers
• Cardboard Easel
• Bean Bag Fill
• Low Temp Glue Gun
• Jonah Bible Friend (optional)

Instructions:

Print pattern. Fold felt piece in half and staple pattern to felt, stapling all around outline. Cut out. Lay one of the felt whales on your work station and run a thin bead of fabric glue all around the outside edges, leaving a 2" section on the bottom with no glue. (We found that fabri-tak glue is the only fabric glue that works well with felt.) Place the 2nd whale cut out directly on top of the first cut out. Cut two mouths and two eyes out of black felt. Glue in place. Let dry.

Pour one cup of bean bag fill into the opening on the bottom of the whale. Glue closed.

To make a background, hot glue an easel to the back of a foam sheet or piece of cardboard painted blue. Stick on sea life foamies to create an ocean background.

If desired, make a Bible Friend to be Jonah.
