does anyone know how I can make flannel cakes?

I've been trawling google and this thread for a flannel dog............no luck so far. Anyone done one that's easy or would it be my best bet to do it the same as the flannel reindeer (minus antlers and red nose obviously .........lol)

I have been doing this too - how odd


The only thing i have found is a couple of people selling them on ebay - thought about emailing them and asking how they made them but dont know if they would reply !!

Or just buying one and seeing how they are made

Found this on you tube. It appears to be the actual one that is on ebay that someone has taken apart. Someone has marked it as spam though so not sure if it will get deleted so you may need to look soon. I didn't get any sound with it but it is easy to follow. The nose seems to be some sort of pin which I don't like the idea of think I would just stick on a little pompom.

HTH X

Thanks a lot for that. I'll need to adapt it a bit as I want a dog as opposed to a puppy but all I need to do is cut the ears another shape and I've got something I can use as a collar rather than a ribbon.
Think I'll use either a pompom or a piece of felt for the nose.........think poor little chap needs eyes as well............lol

I'll see how it works out tomorrow............:T

OMG how easy was that

Thanks very much for finding that tired mom

mary-op please post your picture when you have made the little chap


If anyone has any ideas of anything different i would love to see them

Dog now finished thanks to Tired Mom's link :j

Just had to alter the ears a bit as he's not a puppy and instead of a ribbon I found a piece of chain and a little label.........typed his name on it......all done.

Sorry no photos.......don;t have all the digi camera stuff to do it.
