Pearl-Accented Mushroom Kit (Fungi Specimen 001)

The world needs more mushrooms, especially ones stitched from soft wool-blend felt and finished with pearl accents. This kit will show you how to make your own!

The Pearl-Accented Mushroom is a beginner-friendly felt mushroom sewing kit, and Specimen No. 001 in our Fungi Specimen collection. In less than 30 minutes you’ll learn three simple shaping techniques that turn a handful of felt pieces into a finished mushroom about 2.5 inches tall and 2 inches wide. No prior mushroom experience needed.
