Instructions

Transfer the motifs of the boat and the waves to draw on the model of the size you need and cut out the patterns.

Each fragment is attached to the base (substrate) of white felt. To do this, circle the patterns on the white felt, with a 1-2 mm indent from the edge, then cut.

Cut out each part of the boat from felt of the corresponding color: the hull is made of yellow, red, and green felt, and the pipe is made of gray, supplemented with a blue stripe. Details on the case include a red waterline and black portholes.

In a similar way, prepare the waves.

On the white base in the center, place an elastic rib and stick it. Glue all the details of the boat over the tape. Step back a little and stick the waves.

Wrap the rib around the book, pull, and sew the ends together. Cut the excess ends of the rib.
