  • Step 1Begin by cutting 2 identical eye mask shapes from coloured felt. We made our mask approximately 17cm long.
  • Step 2Cut out decorative features from coloured felt. You could use lightening bolts or stars! Attach to your mask with fabric glue.
  • Step 3Cut a length of elastic approximately 30cm long. Tie the loose ends to secure.
  • Step 4Thread a needle with yarn and sew the 2 main eye mask shapes together using a blanket stitch. See our Blanket Stitch Sewing Tips and Techniques for more information. Sew the elastic into the eye mask as you stitch the pieces together.
  • Step 5Now your sleeping mask is ready to wear. Dad will love it!
