This playful pup with his floppy ears and adorable puppy-dog tail is a perfect pattern for sewing a child’s best friend. He is an unjointed ‘sitting toy’ designed for memory toys, decor or playtime. Making a keepsake? Use the large “no-seam” tummy panel to feature a t-shirt logo or baby clothes design. Special feature: The 5-inch square tummy space is marked on the pattern piece for easy centering. Use the spaces on his ears, arms, foot pads and legs (all with grids) for dates & initials. His felt nose and optional eye patch can be sewn on by machine or hand. The collar and cute bone-shaped name tag piece are included in the pattern!
