short order cook

I've become a short order felt food cook the past few days. It has been several years since the first round of felt food that I made for my niece (those dark photos make me cringe!), and I'm happy to report that I'm ready to re-enter the 12-step-program for felt food addicts. It really is fun to make!
fried eggs, bacon, and a pancake with syrup and a butter pat for breakfast
a few sandwich fixings for lunch (we need deli meat, pb&j and some nutella stat!)
and ravioli, green beans (or snow peas, whatev), and a baguette for dinner
much more to come ... my bag of felt is screaming for fruits and veggies. And beverages. And pantry items. (This could take a while.)
This time around I have been trying to hand stitch most of the food, and I really like the look of it over all machine sewn. I love me a blanket stitch. :)
I haven't been using patterns for these because, come on, we all know what a fried egg looks like, right? I'm a cut and sew on a whim type of girl. If I come up with something ground-breakingly original, I'll be sure to make up a pattern for you. But there are TONS of free felt food patterns online - great to use or just to give you ideas. I've rounded up a bunch for you to check out:

And holy cow, I just found the Felt Food Cook-Along at Helping Little Hands (which includes over 2 dozen ideas)! Felt food gold.
Also ... a great idea from a commenter named Kourtney on the play kitchen post. She said:
"Just an idea for the play food thing... I saw Martha do a necklace out of a t-shirt with Queen Latifa a bit ago and I thought it would make cute play food spaghetti. She just took a t-shirt and cut it up into thin strips with a rotary cutter. When the strips were given a tug they rolled up like noodles."
Brilliant idea! Can't wait to try it.
Have a great weekend, everyone.
