Free Stuffed Animal Patterns
Stuffed animal softies make a baby’s first friends. I could never turn down a cute stuffed animal plushie, not as a child and not now either. But can anyone really? A stuffed animal cutie is bound to have almost anyone squealing in no time, but do you really want to keep your options limited to what’s available at the store when it comes to treating your little friends? Below are some super adorable and free stuffed animal patterns made by some really creative sewers and pattern makers, that you must try out. A little warning though, the following content has some crazy cuteness so be prepared.
#1 Circle Bird Pattern
Had to begin showcasing the cutest free stuffed animal patterns, with THE most adorable circle birdie. It is made of two circles, so simple in design yet such a cute outcome. It’s little beak and the tail sticking up add the sweetest finish to the bird. I can see myself make a flock of these, and so can you. You can decorate your little one’s shelves with these, and even make and keep a couple in a cute decorative cage.

#2 Yoyo Plush Dog Pattern
Who doesn’t like a plush dog? Kids can have so much fun with this, making it sit in funny postures with its tiny pink tongue hanging out. It has this super innocent face and drooping ears that make it all the more suitable for sweet little young ones to play with, and I absolutely love how this little creature has been put together using oval yoyos. It’s an extremely huggable plushie and little kiddies would love it.

#3 Stuffed Sheep Softie Pattern
Name a thing more innocent-looking than a stuffed sheep. This one looks sad and lost if you don’t hug it, and the black, round-button eyes are such a sweet sight. This stuffed sheep softie is easy to make and takes no time, so it is a great project for beginners or kids and it’s the perfect gift for a small baby.

#4 Flying Squirrel Softie Pattern
I love how this one isn’t just any squirrel but a flying squirrel, the flying posture gives you a laugh and adds just the right fun element to the softie. It roughly takes an hour to make, and after seeing this one I feel I’ll be sparing quite a few hours to get everyone in the family one of them. After all, everyone needs one of their own, cause you can’t have folks fighting over this cutie.

#5 Stuffed Fox Pattern
Everyone has been raving about woodland creatures lately, and right they are. One look at these stuffed foxes, and I’m daydreaming about a woodland-themed birthday party with quite a few of those bringing life to the setup. If you too are obsessed with the woodland creature trend, then you must give this stuffed sly fox a try.

#6 Ferdinand the Frog Pattern
Oh-My-God! This plushie has my heart! It’s not just any frog, but with its cute little crown, Ferdinand the Frog is a frog prince and a perfect Valentine’s Day gift for your princess. It has Velcro hands so you can tuck in any gift between its gangly arms. Who wouldn’t appreciate a box of yum chocolates presented by Mr. Ferdinand, His Highness?

#7 Quilted Sleepy Tortoise Pattern
Since I am biased towards cute animal softies, I am always looking for ways to incorporate them around my workspace. If soft plushies are your guilty pleasure, take this adorable quilted sleepy tortoise to work, as an excuse for a paperweight. You can even make this in bigger dimensions and keep this as a cushion/pillow. Better still gift it to a friend who needs a cute reminder to speed up.
#8 Mooshy Belly Bunny Pattern
Got some striped or spotted fabric in your stash? This bunny will flaunt those patterns in the cutest possible way. This pattern is so easy to make, so fun to play with, and a cute present for a little one.

Also, these will make great pillows for a young one’s bedroom and will make their living space super vibrant and magical.
