This cute panda by Cheryl Owen is an adorable make for a loved one. Made in the very apt Pandalicious range for Art Gallery Fabrics, our little pal is sure to make you smile. Use a colourful fabric to sew a heart – why not embroider a message for a loved one, too?

Go online to www.sewmag.co.uk/templates to download and print the templates. Cut out a pair of heads and pair of bodies on the fold from white patterned fabric, two pairs of ears on the fold, two pairs of arms and two pairs of feet from plain black fabric, one pair of bands on the fold and one 6cm diameter circle from black patterned fabric, then one pair of hearts on the fold from light pink patterned fabric.
2 Trace one pair of patches onto the paper backing of fusible webbing. Roughly cut them out, leaving a border around each patch. Press the patches to the wrong side of plain black fabric. Cut out the patches neatly and peel off the backing papers. Refer to the template to press the patches to the right side of one head, which will be the front – the other head will be the back. Oversew the edges of the patches using one strand of black embroidery thread. Embroider the eyes with backstitch using two strands of light blue embroidery thread.
