Stuffed animal plush or soft toys are very popular among kids all over the world. I have to admit, I’m obsessed with plushies or soft toys, and if you’re following our blog for a while you might already know that. My son also loves to play with them, like most other kids. Probably that’s why I keep making plushies. Among all the plushies, stuffed animals are the cutest. These are not only adorable to look at but also safe to play with. And if you google for stuffed animals, you’ll find there are thousands of people who are like me, obsessed with them.


You may buy soft toys anytime, but I think making them at home is the best thing you can do to engage your kid. While making stuffed animals, I often notice that there are not many great stuffed animal sewing patterns that you can download for free. Well, I made all my plushie patterns free to download and found that some generous and talented people also made them free to download.


Today, I’m sharing 12 stuffed animal patterns that are free to download and also have easy-to-follow DIY tutorials with them. Some of these plush patterns are mine and some I have carefully selected from the web. I’m thankful to these amazing creators who let me add their plush sewing patterns to this list. No doubt I loved all those templates and tutorials. I hope you’ll like them too.
