These cucumbers are a must-have in your physical store or online shop. I run a cat toy webshop in Belgium, and these cucumbers have been a bestseller. I want to share this success with you!
They're incredibly easy to make:
Step 1: Cut them out.
Step 2: Zigzag the edges.
Step 3: Sew the edges together with the right sides facing inward, leaving a small opening to fill the cucumber with crinkly paper, stuffing, and ... catnip!
Step 4: Turn the fabric right side out and fill the cucumber with crinkly paper, stuffing, and catnip.
Step 5: Neatly and securely sew the filling opening shut.
Tip: I always choose twill cotton for these toys because it's exceptionally durable. If the cats you're making toys for play 'gently,' regular cotton can also be used. Keep in mind, a piece of regular cotton yields fewer cucumbers due to its narrower width!
If you have any questions, feel free to message me. Happy sewing!
