Best Felt Food Patterns From Around the Web
Inquiring minds want to know where I got some of my patterns.. well, I used some patterns that I purchased online and also made up some by myself. I also found a lot of free felt food patterns as well and I’m finding more and more across the web as time goes by. I became interested in making felt food when I decided to buy my son a pretend kitchen for Christmas last year. After coming across felt food patterns on Etsy I’ve been completely hooked ever since. It’s a great alternative to plastic play foods and let’s face it, it’s CUTE! It’s detailed and makes play time so much more fun for the kids and making it is a bit addicting to say the least. So I know you didn’t all come here for me, you came here for the huge list of free patterns and tutorials for felt food that I’ve acquired over this past year and that I continue to add to as time goes by. Here goes…

My favorite felt food patterns available for purchase:
1. Gulf Coast Cottage
I bought most of my patterns from her including:
* Bountiful Harvest Felt Food PDF Pattern
* Little Cake Decorator Set Pattern
* Tea Party Sweets Pattern
* Market Tote with Groceries Pattern (I bought this specifically for the paper bag and modified my pattern since I wanted it to be taller and bigger)
* Peanut Butter & Jelly Lunch Set
I bought them but didn’t necessarily use all the patterns, I just didn’t have the time but I plan to at some point. She also has a buy 3 get 1 free sale right now! I really loved her patterns and the instructions were so easy to follow along with.
2. July Hobby (she has really cute patterns, I love the Happy Meal set)
3. Ume Crafts (great detailed felt food items but still looks easy to make)
4. Bugga Bugs (tons of cute patterns, I’m loving her homemade bread set and the chinese take out)
5. Little Cricket (fun patterns like the Ballpark Fun pattern can be found here)
Other helpful tutorials and ideas:
1. If you’d like to make a cute fabric basket to put your felt food in, this is a great little tutorial and a fun idea.
2. You Can Make This has a free pattern for a cute little chef’s hat.
3. How to sew using the whip stitch
4. When using your sewing machine back up your felt with newspaper so it doesn’t get stuck and ruin your felt. It’s also a great way to re-use your newspaper.

Felt O Rama is a really wonderful online shop to buy your felt. I used their wool blend felt and also their recycled eco-felt since they’re more affordable than 100% wool and both were great to work with. I was pleasantly surprised and thrilled with how much easier they were to work with than the few cheap pieces I’d had to buy at the craft store. They also had really fast shipping and everything came as ordered which made my experience with them wonderful.
