How To: Felt Asparagus

I've adapted this tutorial for making felt asparagus from Une Ame D'Enfant: Légumes en feutrine : champignons, asperges, carottes, poireaux. It's in French, but no worries, here it is below with some of my adaptations.

1. Cut felt rectangle: 2.5" wide by 3" tall. This will produce an asparagus stalk that is about 3" tall, if you want a longer stalk, cut the rectangle taller.
   
2. Taper top of rectangle, 1/2" shorter on one side.
   
   
3. Draw line 1/2" under taper then cut the triangles out. The triangles will be about 1/2" tall (because of the line).
   
   
4. Cut 2 top edges of triangles out of felt, focusing on the top and shorter side of the rectangle
   
   
5. Roll felt, starting with the tallest end of the taper.
   
6. Sew edge of roll. I used a simple overhand stitch.
   
   
7. Cut little triangles from scrap felt.
   
8. Hot glue triangles to asparagus. I use about 3-4 per stalk.
   
   

Done!
