Enough talking...let's get started!
You'll need two large ovals and a piece of fleece or batting to give it a cozier feel. You'll also want two smaller pocket pieces:
The pattern templates are available in my pattern, but you can just cut out the shapes yourself to fit whatever stuffed doll you'd like.
First let's start with sewing the front and back of the pocket together.
Now that you've made your pocket, it's time to sew the layers together, leaving an opening at the top for turning.
What do you guys think? Any questions?
That's how to make the simple version, but once you get that down you can move onto a bit more complicated versions. Quilt the pocket, add some applique... the possibilities are endless! These more complicated versions (and their corresponding dolls/mice) will be up in my Etsy shop in a week or so...just in time for the holidays!
...thought you'd have the dolly pattern that fits the sleeping bag too.....disappointed
ReplyDeleteI do Linda! It just isn't free. It is the bedbug pattern in my shop. I do have a free doll pattern on my blog, it's just for a larger doll, so you'd have to scale up the sleeping bag for it. You can find that tutorial here: http://www.snugglebuguniversity.com/2013/08/the-bookworm-cloth-doll.html
DeleteThese look so cute and easy! I'm hoping to make a few for my little girl. Thanks for sharing! 😊
ReplyDeleteHello! I've just found your blog, and this lovely tutorial. Thank you so much for posting it! I'm rubbish at sewing, but this is simple and clear so I might be able to manage to make it for my daughter's bunny. Thank you very much!
