What’s the Project? These cute monster stuffed animal patterns are cute to make for kids. Great for boys or girls and can be customized to be perfect for the kid you’re making it for, these little guys make a wonderful gift and a fun sewing project.
Sometimes I just want something fun and cute to sew for my little boys and this ended up being a really fun sewing project to make for them! Make them a little stuffed monster in any color, meaning it’s perfect for boys or girls and can be customized for any kid. These stuffed animal patterns are fun to sew and the monsters are so cute!
The arms and the legs are basically just like a basic doll pattern, but then I added horns and a soft minky body with a crazy face to make this guy cute, silly and loveable!
Think you’ve got a kid who would love this?
Here’s how to make him!
Monster Stuffed Animal Patterns:
Supplies Needed:
- 1/4 yard of soft, minky fabric for the body
- Small amounts of minky fabric for arms, legs and horns
- Small amounts of fleece in white, black, orange and yellow for the face
- Poly fil Stuffing
- Monster Stuffed Animal Pattern: Head Piece
- Monster Pattern: Face Pieces
- Monster Pattern: Arms and Legs
Instructions:
Print out your pattern pieces and cut all of the pieces from your fabric. Cut two large oval pieces that are about 12 inches wide by 14 inches tall for the body.
With right sides together, sew your legs, arms, and horns around the outer edges leaving the top edge open to turn: 
Turn those all right side out and stuff them with your stuffing.
Place your face pieces on one of you head pieces and sew each one in place with a simple straight stitch around the outer edge. I tol you to use fleece for these pieces because it won’t fray.
Now you will sew the bottom of the head to the top of the body with a simple straight line across the two. Place right sides together and sew across the top:
Lay the horns in place but facing into the face:
Do the same with the arms down on the body. Then place the back of your monster on top and pin it all the way around. 
Sew all the way around leaving about 6 inches open at the bottom. Turn the monster right side out and stuff him.
Stick the legs in place and pin the opening closed on them. Then sew that shut:
And that’s it! He’s done! Not too bad I hope?
Hopefully, you love making this cute monster stuffed animal pattern.

April 25, 2014 at 2:47 pmI can’t give you the body pattern because it is larger than a single sheet of paper, so I just gave you the dimensions.
