The cookie monster is the most relatable of all the muppets, so it’s only natural that you would want to make a cookie monster eyes rug and cookie pillows for your kids to play with right? All you need is a blue faux-fur fabric and some textile supplies, if you do it right it should take you 1 hour to complete this
Just look at these googly eyes, so cute!
Your kids will love sitting on this rug
Make sure to fold the fabric before cutting it to get two identical sides
The monster is made out of faux fur fabric that is about one meter wide, fold it with the fur on the inside, then trace your hand on a paper, now modify it to look like a Cookie monster hand which is short stubby fingers and trace it on the fabric, use this as a starting point to draw your cut out of the monster on the fabric, fold the fabric again so the fur is on the outside and use this as a template for the other hand of the monster
Now move to the eyes, use white yarn to make them. all you need is to bunch up the yarn then wrap it in itself, do this until it will be the size of a gold ball, obviously make two of these. You can use stitching to hold the loose yarn end and don’t forget to place two glossy button pupils
Hold the eyes together with a thick embroidery yarn, first attach them to the head and then to each other. Remember that the Cookie monster has the crazy eyes, so make sure the eyes are a little cross-eyed
The cookie is made by cutting two disks of soft beige fabric, saw them together with the soft side inside but leave an opening so you can turn them out
Now insert the pillow batting to give it some shape and close it with a beige thread
That’s it! your cookie monster rug is ready to use
