Insert the image onto the next screen, then duplicate the leg and arm shapes to make 4 of each, duplicate the head and body shapes to make 2 each, then select "make it".
For the felt elements, select acrylic felt as the material for the felt pieces and cut them, using the rotary blade.
For the heat transfer vinyl elements, select heat transfer vinyl as the material, place the vinyl face-down on the mat, then cut them, using the fine point blade.
When the cut is complete, weed the designs for each of the the Grinch elements.
Carefully place the vinyl elements of the face onto one of the head shapes and, using the Easy Press Mini to press them in place. As mentioned above, either layer each of the layered eye elements in one press or allow each lower layer to fully cool before heat pressing on the next layer.
Placing the two head pieces face-to face, pin around the exterior, leaving a 3-4 -inch long section open in the center of the neck. Sew the hem around the exterior of the head shapes. Turn the head shape right-side out and stuff full with polyfill.
Pin together two of the arm shapes, sew the hem around the exterior, leaving the end open where it will attach to the body and turn right-side out. Stuff the arm with polyfill. Repeat with the second arm and the two legs.
Pin the two body shapes together, sew the hem around the exterior, leaving a 3-inch section open in the center of the neck where it will attach to the body and turn right-side out. Stuff the body with polyfill.
Fold the open sections of both the head and body neck openings inside the respective pieces, then hand stitch the head to the body.
Fold the open end of each arm and each leg inside the respective piece, then hand stitch the arms and legs to the body where desired.
Cut 3 small rectangles of green faux fur about 1 inch long by 1/2 inch wide. Hot glue one of these rectangles to the top of the Grinch's head and one on each cheek.
Cut a larger rectangle of green faux fur about 2 inches wide by 4-6 inches long (long enough to wrap around the neck) then hot glue it in place around the neck for his scruff.
To make the scarf, cut your red and white rectangles of felt into sections (they don't need to be perfect--this is supposed to look like a "raggedy" scarf). Pin the sections of red and white felt end-to-end, overlapping by about 1/8 inch, run a hem on each side, connecting all of the pieces. Loosely wrap this scarf around the Grinch's neck and enjoy!
