Take any one of the house patterns and place the windows and the door on it; arrange the door on the middle with the 2 windows on both sides of the door.

Step 3:

Prepare needle and thread and start to stitch all items together, starting your stitch from the chimney. While stitching keep in mind to stitch the chimney, roof and both house patterns together.

Step 7:

Keep small opening for stuffing the house. Use cotton to stuff the house through the small opening. Once the stuffing is done stitch the open end to secure the stuffing.
