Savvy Sea Turtle Plushie Soft Toy Sewing Pattern and Tutorial DIGITAL PDF

Description Make a cuddly splash! Imagination can take you Anywhere! A variety of fabrics work well for this project, my favorite for optimum softness  and shape is 3mm smooth minky by Shannon Fabrics. However, due to the easy potential for the seams to get thick quickly, quality cotton is my first choice and works great, too!This sewing project is rated for the intermediate to advanced sewist (due primarily to the potential for thick seams), but has options for the adventurous beginner. I walk you through each step with detailed instructions and photos to illustrate each step. I also give tips for reducting/mitigating the thickness of the seams. Your creativity is encouraged with variations to help you customize your stuffed animal.
