Maker Workshop: Stitch a Dinosaur Plushie

In honor of our touring exhibition Ultimate Dinosaurs, learn how to make your own dinosaur plushie in The Forge! Dinosaurs are one of the most diverse groups of reptiles inhabiting the world millions of years ago. They also make for adorable and cuddly plushies that are easy to sew! With some simple materials and tips from us, you can create a dino-mite souvenir to remind you of your incredible time at the Science Museum.

Tools used in this workshop include needle, thread, shark templates and hot glue gun. Skills used include running stitch, whip stitch and using textile patterns.

This workshop will be held at 1 p.m. and 2 p.m. on June 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21 and 30.
