Make a deer doll with this cute and easy PDF sewing pattern. Experience sewing cloth / plush dolls or making stuffed animal toys is not necessary. It includes step-by-step photographs, detailed instructions and lots of tips from my years of doll making experience. I will also invite you to join a friendly and supportive Facebook group where you can watch video demonstrations, ask questions and see dolls made by other members.
This is an intermediate level pattern because the Y seam on the front of the deer's face is a bit more tricky to sew than my other animal patterns. It isn't especially difficult to sew, but it does require you to be very precise with your stitching. I include lots of tips for making this easier and a video demonstration.
