Cute little squirrel and hedgehog - Instructions and pattern in Dutch (pdf)

A small squirrel and hedgehog to sew yourself; the squirrel with a soft, fluffy tail and tiny tufted ears, and a hedgehog with a pointed nose and a (in this case not-so) prickly back. This digital pattern (PDF) contains all the steps—with photos—to make your own cute squirrel and hedgehog: about 12 cm tall (excluding ears) and completely customizable with fabrics from your own stash.

The pattern is in Dutch and is fully detailed in a PDF instruction booklet, with clear step-by-step explanations and photos for every step: from tracing the pattern pieces and sewing the body, arms, and legs, to attaching the tail and ears and giving them a face. With just a little experience in sewing stuffed animals, you can get started with this.

You can sew the squirrel and hedgehog by hand or on a sewing machine.

• Chenille wire (optional)
