Axolotl Plush FREE Sewing Pattern and Tutorial

Axolotl Plush FREE Sewing Pattern and Tutorial

This cute belly-down plush is a chibi version of everyone’s favorite amphibious salamander. It has the same external gills and tail fin as the original, but in a much smaller package.

The plush is in a sweet laying pose so the face and tail are highly visible. The pattern comes with templates for two kinds of gills — either short, cute gills that resemble flower petals, or longer, curved gills that are more accurate to the animal.

What you’ll need:

• 1⁄4 yd. of fabric for main body
• 1⁄8 yd. of accent fabric for gills (or use 3 different colored fabrics)
• 3” x 3″ piece of accent applique fabric (felt, cotton, etc.) for eyes
• 1” x 2” piece of black applique fabric for mouth 2″ x 2″ piece of white applique fabric for eye shines
• 5” x 5” piece of light or heavy duty fusible web
• sewing thread to match main fabric and applique fabrics
• poly-fil stuffing
• basic sewing tools (sewing machine, scissors, iron, needles, pins, fabric marker, seam ripper)
