Make a Mythical Sea Creature: Merhorse

Soft Toy Sewing Pattern--Very Easy!

Make your own

(Mythical Seahorse also named a Hippocampus)

    This paper pattern includes pattern pieces and instructions for making a stuffed Merhorse 18" long x 9" tall.  The pattern includes pieces for the ears and body, and easy instructions.  This is not a kit.  Contact me if you have any questions.  This animal can be made using any soft fabric such as a veleur if you don't have access to fake fur where you live.  I designed this pattern and many others and had them printed.  My business name is Fantasy Creations (please check out my eBay store).  The pattern was published in 1984.  It is new and uncut.  I can recommend this pattern for any experienced seamstress.  The finished Merhorse is suitable for all ages if the seamstress uses childsafe eyes.  When you hold the finished Merhorse you will want to tuck the tail under your arm and it wraps around pressing the back of your arm and it gives you the feeling of being hugged.  This is something unique to this design I've found.

    I designed over 100 different stuffed animals and sold them in my gift shop in the early 1980s.  I made patterns for some of my best selling designs so that other creative folks could make these same adorable stuffed animals to sell at church bazars or give as gifts.  Before I made the patterns I asked women who bought patterns what they liked and would want me to avoid.  My patterns are full sized, printed on one side of the paper only, the instructions are in one area so they will not be cut up, and I wrote the instructions and illustrated them clearly and in simple English.  The pattern is published on newsprint, not tissue paper.  After years of designing and making stuffed animals I put all of the wisdom I had garnered into a "Tips" sheet which is included for free.

   I guarantee satisfaction.  If you look at the pattern and read the instructions, within 7 days of purchasing it, and want to return it to me uncut I will refund your payment.  I reserve the copyright on all of the patterns.  Feel free to make as many stuffed animals as you like for craft sales and gifts but do not reproduce the pattern or mass produce the animals as a manufacturer.  Contact me if you have any questions.  I really want my customers to be happy.
