Create a fun, fantasy friend who will perch on your shoulder with this shoulder dragon plush sewing pattern. This dragon stuffed animal is designed to sit nicely on a shoulder, but can also stand on its own which looks like it is jumping. It does not use wires or other armature so it remains perfectly snuggleable.
This pattern includes instructions to create 3 different dragon designs. The most basic is the plain dragon which includes no additional ornamentation. There is also a winged dragon which has 2 toned wings and spikes running down its back. The most difficult variation is the maned dragon which includes a fur mane running down its head and back and a fur puff at the end of its tail.
Included:
The shoulder dragon plush pattern itself with 1/4 seam allowance and exact sewing lines, written instructions, and accompanying photographs needed to create the 3 variations of the dragon. The pattern includes 1/4 of an inch seam allowance as well as showing exact sewing lines.
Size:
Your finished dragon will measure approximately 19 inches long and 6 inches tall, though the curved shape makes it difficult to measure exactly. It’s designed to sit on a shoulder.

(This pattern is also licensed to Smplicity as pattern #8715. If you own the Simplicity pattern, there is nothing new in this pattern. However, Simplicity creates their own pattern markings, writes their own instructions, and adds their own illustrations so there will be variations between the two patterns. One of the biggest differences is that I use step by step photos rather than illustrations which may be helpful if you're a more visual learner.)
