Instructions:

1. Cut a 4 inch circle out of the thicker middle brown felt piece. Fold this circle in half and cut down the middle, creating a half circle. Fold this circle into a cone shape and sew the cone so that it retains its shape.
Sew the Cone

2. Cut out three 2.5 inch circles. Sew a running stitch along the outer edge of each circle and leave the string hanging long.
Sew along the outer edge

3. Now pull the string so that it closes each circle. Stuff each circle with batting and close off the hole by running a couple of stitches back and forth across the hole and pulling the string tight. Now you have 3 scoops of ice cream as seen in the picture below.
Pull stitches closed and secure

4. Stuff the cone lightly and cover the inside with a piece of felt to hide the stuffing. Now sew the first scoop to the felt.
Sew ice cream scoop to cone

5. Now sew the remaining two scoops to finish off the cone.
Add more scoops

Fusible web is like dry glue for fabric. If you need to applique one fabric piece to another, it is excellent to use. You will need an iron to heat up and activate the glue.

How to Make Patterns and Permanent Templates
You need patterns and templates mainly for sewing crafts, wood crafts and paper crafts. Creating permanent templates is easy and has a couple of advantages. First, if you wish to create the same project more than once you will save a lot of time because the template is already prepared. And second, if you are working with a group, the templates are durable and can be easily passed along to the next person. Permanent templates are especially useful when making crafts with children.
