Husband Cozy

husband-cozy

Tired of your husband sitting around gathering dust? Make a cozy for him! This is a great project to use up those fabric scraps and try your hand at patchwork.

Supplies:

  • Spouse (husband, significant other, girlfriend, partner)
  • Crazy glue
  • Extra sharp scissors
  • Chewing gum

To get the head measurements just right, have your spouse lie down directly on the fabric while you cut around his head with a pair of large, sharp scissors. Careful around the ears! Next, keeping the spouse’s head inside the fabric, take it to your sewing machine and sew around the head for a snug fit.  Cut any loose hairs that peek through the seam.

And finally, put your new cozy on display!  You can put him on the shelf or have him out for the kids to view. This would also make a fun papier-mâché project; just be sure to add air holes.

Happy April Fool’s Day! No husbands were harmed in the making of this cozy.

  1. Fabulous!

    I find if you slip a little codeine in his coffee, he’ll remain sedated long enough to make this *really* easy.

  2. Oh I like this!! I’m going to make a matching set of my husband and both sons – I’m sure they’ll be positively thrilled! 😉

    Thanks for the laugh!

  3. I tried this right away. For my husband cozy, I used an iron-on transfer image of Johnny Depp for the face side and an image of lots of luxurious hair on the back. Love it!!!

  4. LOVE this… HA!!! What wife doesn’t want to “cozy” up her husband every once in awhile??? This is definitely going on the blog and facebook!

  5. Just wonderful!! I have images of my husband on my sewing table all contorted as I sew around him! Too funny!!!

  6. I’m starting on mine right now; should have it done by the time he gets home from mall-walking. I’ll just tell him it’s a new hat. One question….what’s the chewing gum for?

  7. this was really funny.enjoyed picturing different people cozily in their own bag. The best part was sewing around the face with them still in it. Thanks!
