With this snail PDF plush sewing pattern, you can create a wonderful gift for a child or friend of any size (including life size plush).
The history of the softie sewing pattern:
At first, the 3D model of the plushie toy was designed.
At the second stage, I designed the details of the stuffed toy sewing patterns directly on the 3D model surface using special software.
In the next step, I positioned the created sewing pattern details on a flat surface.
The last step in creating the plushie pattern was the exact fit of the parts to each other down to the millimeter.

Please note that softie toy dimensions are approximate. The size of the finished plushie depends on the type of fabric and its filler.
