Tiny Felt Mario

Well the post title, while lacking in my usual wit and clever way with the English language (there isn't even a single pun), pretty much sums the post up.  I have made a little Super Mario out of felt. 

Ah felt is there nothing you can't do?

I consulted the great internet oracle for images of Mario to copy be inspired by, then drew a few little Marios of my own before cutting it up into bits to get the parts. The parts were then cut from felt and sewed together.  I used red for hat, arms, and chest, pink for face and hands, blue for overalls, and brown for shoes. 

I did a sort of French Knot for his nose after finding a decent video of how to do them, linked here.  Then stitched his eyes and moustache using a basic poke and pull method of the needle through poor little Mario's head. 

And Mario can join the rest of my little characters in my growing felt army:
Android Felties
Zombie and Ninja Felties
Christmas Decoration Felties
