We showed this video to give some background information about the dragon, unicorn, mermaid, griffin and phoenix. Then students chose a beast template to embroider on a piece of felt that will be sewn onto their tunic as a pocket.The pictures show a couple template designs, the paper removal process, and a couple student examples of the finished product.
