Deer sewing pattern

Make a deer doll with our cute and easy sewing pattern. With this pattern, you’ll be able to make an adorable original-size 15” (35cm) deer doll wearing ruffled trousers and a bow or a waistcoat and trousers. 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. If you've tried some of our confident beginner sewing patterns, the deer is the perfect next project!

Discover the joy of sewing a cherished keepsake for your loved ones that will be treasured for years to come
