To make your own felt ravioli, you will need:
1 sheet ivory felt
clear or white thread
sewing needle
fabric scissors
pinking shears
One small sheet of ivory felt should yield about 8 ravioli. Fold the sheet in half horizontally and cut along the fold. Repeat 4 more times until you have 16 equal pieces of felt, about 2 inches square each. Take two squares and sew with clear or light-colored thread leaving about 1/4" inseam. Sew three sides and stuff the ravioli with a cotton ball. Sew up the fourth side. Repeat until all 8 ravioli are sewn and stuffed with cotton balls. Finally, use pinking shears to trim up the edges of each ravioli with a zig-zag edge, and you are done!

This is great for a novice sewer like me, and sounds quick and easy. I am going to make up some to give as part of my handmade valentine gifts for my friends 4 and 2 year olds.
I love the idea of making these for Valentine's Day gifts. Brilliant, Katie! Thanks so much for sharing!
