❗ THIS IS FOR A SEWING PATTERN, IT IS NOT FOR A FINISHED PLUSH ❗
🧾 Instruction Language: ENGLISH 🧾
🦋 MOTH & BUTTERFLY PLUSH .PDF PATTERN 🦋
This listing is for a .pdf instant download of a plush sewing pattern. It teaches you how to make a moth or butterfly plush. You have your choice of two body types, flying or standing as well as 2 wing sizes, large or small. For the wing designs, there are 5 options, a luna moth, monarch, poodle moth, rosy maple moth, and a generic scalloped design with creepy "eye" markings that work well for both moths and butterflies.
They feature tiny bodies with skinny arms and legs. They also have cute antennae and optional neck fluff pieces for a very fuzzy moth look. The instructions show how to wire the wings, but this is optional. The standing moths do not stand on their own.
It is sewing pattern with complete instructions to create the plush from start to finish -- including step-by-step photos and a printable pattern. It includes extra info on choosing fabrics, tools to get started, printing your pattern, and cutting your fabric. This project is not recommended for absolute beginners, but I do my best to explain everything in detail for those rogue confident newbies that want a challenge :)
🧵 The face and wing designs have instructions for fusible web applique, but embroidery files are also available: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1167419370/bug-eyes-machine-embroidery-file-design
