Simplicity 8715 Children's Stuffed Animal Dragon Toy Sewing Patterns by Beezee Art, One Size Only

When I cut out the pattern pieces, I realized some of the pieces (tail end and legs) would be too small for my not so nimble fingers. I enlarged the pieces by 140% and made a mock up to test fitting. It actually came out pretty good and I am pleased with it. Looking forward to making the actual.

I made several these as gifts to my friends, unfortunately I did not take a lot of photos. I will say i did the dragon style and it took about 3-5 hours each one. I would not recommend for absolutely beginners but I am also semi a beginner, but Im ok with things not being perfect. The size is great and they do fit on the shoulders. If you do this I highly recommend you use fleece or mink fleece as they are easy to work with.

I'm a beginner so my dragon isn't perfect but I think with practice this pattern will be great!! I still ended up with a cute Lil guy.

This pattern for dragons looks neat and the dragon turned out great once I figured out the directions. The directions ere hard to follow and could have been more detail not only with words but with the drawings.

Excellent instructions, clear guidelines. Recommend reading them thoroughly a few times. I’m an advanced craftsman and I found it helpful to double check multiple times. Very clever regarding how the legs are attached. I will be doing embroidery work for the eyes, mouth and nose to add a bit more expression. I find eye buttons not to be satisfactory. The package suggests plush fleece Minky, I strongly suggest you buy it on Amazon because I looked at five stores here in Boise and they average anywhere from $18-$24 a yard. I could have chosen to use a regular fleece, however, I liked the Minky fleece the best. When I’m done, I will take pictures and update my review.

As pictured.

I bought this for my 16 year old, and she absolutely loves it. It's a fairly easy pattern, and turns out really nice. She has made about half a dozen dragons in multiple colors of plain cotton fabric, fleece, and flannel. It all works great.

Bought to make for my grandsons. Directions are straight forward. Requires some sewing skill, not for beginners! I’ve made many stuffed animals, including. Unicorn for my granddaughters 18 inch doll. Should not be difficult for me.
