1. With fingers spread apart, trace your hand onto cardboard. Cut out the traced hand.
2. Use the cardboard hand as a pattern to trace and cut two hands from felt. Cut the fingers off of the cardboard hand, leaving only the palm.
3. Glue the cardboard palm on one of the felt hands. Cut chenille stems to fit the length of the five fingers. Place a line of glue on each finger, from the tip to the palm. Put a chenille stem on each line of glue. Spread glue on the entire surface of the second felt hand. Press it on to sandwich the cardboard palm and chenille stems. Use the clothespins to hold the hands together while they dry.
4. Cut two rectangles (1-1/2 by 3 inches) out of white felt as shirt cuffs. Glue the cuffs on each side of the wrist section. Glue a button on one end of the top white rectangle.
5. Cover a wooden block with two pieces of felt for the top and bottom, and wrap another strip around the sides. Decorate the block with yarn and felt shapes.
6. Remove the clothespins from the felt hand and bend the fingers up. Glue hand to the block.
