This is Toast, and he's not just a cute cuddly face. Pop him in the microwave and then between the sheets for a warm start to any cold night. He'd make a great gift for children and can also be used on aches and pains.
He's also super easy to make!!
What you'll need:
- Fabric – fleece, flannel or cotton
- Filling – wheat, oats or rice
- Scissors

- Pen
You can also use your Leftover Fabric Squares for these FREE Projects.
I haven’t read it all but I sure do hope you specified everything used for this MUST be 100% cotton, including thread and fabric. Just like the bowl cozies so popular, if not made 100% cotton, it will melt or even catch fire in the microwave.
Can you use “bucky” instead of the rice?
hello, I just want to draw your attention to the materials to make the Toast heat pack. Any heat pack that goes into a microwave must be 100% cotton only – so no fleece. And all sewing thread must be 100% cotton as well. This is a safety measure to prevent sudden combustion or fire in the microwave. Heat for 1-2 minutes only and a cup of cold water should also be placed in the microwave alongside the heat pack prior to heating.
Hope this helps to keep everyone safe.
This is so sweet. I want one for me! Any flat animal pattern will do.. I may make a whole menagerie!
