- To create your soft sculpture, you will need a variety of supplies that can be purchased at your local craft store. Supplies needed include erasable water colors and solvent, a palette, cotton-polyester blend fabric, fiber fill, parchment paper, thread and needles, and decoration supplies such as glitter, sequins, rhinestones, buttons or raffia.
- As this is a complex craft, it is suggested the crafter be at least 12-years-old unless she has a lot of adult help and supervision to assist in craft completion. First, decide on what shape you would like your sculpture to have such as an animal, doll or flower shape. As this is a three dimensional shape, the shape will need a front and a back side, which should be sketched out on the fabric. Details would then be painted onto the fabric and then the fabric would be pressed between two pieces of parchment paper with an iron. The design would then be cut out, sewn together and stuffed. Finally, the sculpture would be decorated with the items selected for that purpose.
