If you still heart fake food as well, go grab the following supplies:
Tan and Cream Felt
Fiber Fill
Straight pins
*both hand sewing and machine sewing required
There is no pattern. Simply cut {2} 5 inch x 15 inch pieces of tan felt {you'll need to buy felt from a bolt, the sheets of felt won't be long enough} and {1} 5 inch x 12 inch piece of cream felt.
To give your bread some dimension you'll want to cut 3 sections across {1} piece of tan felt. I used a water soluble pen to act as a guide for where I wanted to make my cuts. When your 3 sections have been cut out, pin the cream felt to the back of the tan felt. Then either hand sew or machine sew around the cutouts. I opted to hand sew.
Pin the side with the cutouts to the remaining piece of tan felt. Sew around the French bread, leaving a 2 inch opening on one of the ends. Turn the French bread right side out and stuff with fiberfill. Using a whip stitch, sew the opening closed.
And there you have it, gluten free, carb free French bread.
