Yoda Yoda Yoda

I've had a Star Wars kind of year.  Having made the choice to turn our house into Endor for an Ewok birthday party, I undertook the misguided task of designing and sewing 25 plush Ewok dolls, and a handful of light sabers that are now so beat up they look like limp noodles.  My best creation was the Yoda pillow that I made Jasper, I have to say that one was something (it's hard to make a pillow look like a 900 year old man). 

"Truly Wonderful, the mind of a child is"

Today is Jasper's last day of preschool and the graduation theme is Star Wars, no weapons of course.  I offered to sew 30 Yoda headpieces for all the kids. If I had been more ambitious I would have made Leia buns for the ladies.  This is a super easy project, which could be done with a glue gun as well. 

Instructions:

1 1/2" plastic headband

3.5x 16.5" piece of felt for tube

6x3" flat bottom leaf shape for ears

Fold tube in half

Fold the flat bottom of the ears

Pin ears inside the tube fold at 4" from ends

Sew length with 1/4 seam allowance end to end

Thread in headband and hot glue ends closed
