Ahoy Mateys...welcome to PirateCove! Provide your little pirates with hours of imaginative play...this 7 piece, simply adorable set has everything an aspiring young swashbuckler would need: A treasure chest with a lock that really opens, a pirate sword, a treasure map, a compass, a jewel and a handful of dubloons! Everything except the sword fits inside the chest for tidy storage. The unique but simple construction of the sword makes it very sturdy--it can bend but will bounce right back and won't droop!

You will receive a PDF pattern only, NOT the finished items. The extensive 38 page booklet includes full-scale pattern templates--NO ENLARGING NECESSARY, cutting layouts, easy to follow step-by-step instructions with many full color photos and diagrams and a complete materials list so that if you'd like, you can make the set exactly as shown. Variations are also fun...you can try different colors--make a set for a girl pirate too! No matter how you choose to make it, this pirate play set will be a huge hit with the little people in your life because all Treehouse Patterns designs are extensively tested by the people who matter most...kids!
All items are designed to be hand sewn--no sewing machine required! This pattern requires approximately 5/8 yard (19" X 36") or 4-12 X 18 sheets of felt for the treasure chest and one 12" X 18" sheet of felt for the sword. The rest can be made using 9" X 12" felt sheets and small remnants. 2/3 yard of Peltex Ultra Firm Sew-In stabilizer is also required but stiffened felt available at fabric and craft stores is a great substitute.
This project is suitable for intermediate sewists or confident beginning sewists. One-on-one assistance is always available if you have questions about any part of the process.
I use wool blend felt from National Nonwovens for all of my designs and I highly recommend it. This can be purchased from various suppliers online. Acrylic felt works equally well and is readily available in fabric and craft stores--wool blend is just my personal choice.

This item requires a PDF viewer and prints best on 8 1/2 X 11 letter paper but every effort has been made to assure it prints equally well on A4 paper.
