This is a lounge buddy, you use a pillow for its body. Its basically an animal sham. I made it for my nephew’s 4th birthday. I used an older McCall’s pattern my mom gave me but redesigned the head, I’m really pleased with how it turned out.
Fleece, cotton fabric, quit batting (for frill), poly fill, animal eyes, felt for nostrils, and sham pillow to insert for body.
Thank you to my mom for all of her help and teaching me how to create my own patterns and modifications :).
