Task 1&2 This is the bit you need You need to design your own jellyfish and colour it in. This is your paper template. Once you have done this you need to cut round the head of the jellyfish. YOU DO NOT NEED THE FEET!
Task 3 Pin the paper pattern (jellyfish head) to your fabric. Cut around this. It is exactly the same process as your fabric butterfly. Repeat the process so you have two jellyfish heads. You should be left with two of these in fabric form.
Task 4 Cut out the pieces of fabric you wish to use for the following: Cheeks Eyes Mouth Once you have done this, glue them on to ONE side of your jellyfish face
Task 5 1. Collect the colours of wool you would like and cut long strands off. This is for the jellyfish legs. 2. Place the strands of wool at the bottom of ONE of your jellyfish heads and stick them on with PVA glue. 3. Place the second jellyfish head on top. The one with the face, cheeks and mouth on it. Remember that the video uses ribbons for the legs but we are using wool. You can replay the video if that helps you
Task 6 1. Pin the jellyfish head that is on top (the one with the face) to the other jellyfish head. 2. Start to stitch round the jellyfish head but leave a small gap at the top (just like your butterflies) so you can stuff it. 3. Double stitch at the start and double stitch at the end! This makes sure it is nice and secure.
Task 7 1. Once you have left a gap at the top, you can break up some stuffing and place it into your jellyfish head. Just like the butterflies. 2. Once it is full, you can stitch the top up so it is completely closed. Finished!
