The pattern's here:
[link] Sorry, it's a HUUUUUUGE file but these things take time. I've actually had to chop it in half. It's too huge for DeviantArt! OK, well basically I've been pestered several times for a pattern for my little horses ([link]); so I've broken my back slaving for hours over fabric and a computer, for your benefit. Ah, I'm a glutton for punishment I like everything to be nice and proportionate so I came up with this proportionate horse plush pattern last year. I've made it three times now, each time slightly refining the pattern. PS: these things are not commercially viable because they take too long. I am, however running out of space for these bloody horses! They're about 30cm long and 40 cm tall. I still have the palomino and the dun for sale so if you'd like to buy them, then note me. They probably will be around $50, and if you think that's steep just remember what I did Not really much else to say. I know this is not a terribly clear tutorial but I hope at least someone finds it useful. Credit and link if you use it. The quarter horse photo is from [link] I originally wanted to use this felt to make a fjord horse but I really couldn't be stuffed altering my pattern: besides, you people wanted a regular horse. So here you are. Part 2 is here: [link] |

your way of doing manes is so much better than mine. I get little lengths of thread, tie a knot in the middle of each one and through the knot onto the needle and thread, and stitch them in as I stitch the back of the neck. Crap way of doing it! Mind you cos mine are only teeny plushes, I don't need to use so many strands.
I am understanding how you do it now, sections at a time... I'm stuck in this mindset that I have to have 2 halves, right and left, which means things don't always line up... plus then there's underpieces and such, and I just get too confused lol.
going to read pt2 now!

Because I can go only so many weeks without falling
And only so many days without failing
And only so many hours without hurting
And so many minutes without you
