Finally. For those who asked. Here’s my Thistle plush doll pattern with some tips too. Only body and hair. So sorry it took me so long because some parts of the patterns are missing & re-created some with what I can remember, I never thought someone would ask so I didn’t keep some, that’s including most of the outfit patterns. Sizes are in cm & they’re approximate. If the pictures aren’t clear enough, click for better resolution.

Materials: minky plush fabric (body & hair), poly fiber filling (fillings).

The body is in a permanent sitting position. Anyways let’s get started:

Heads up: the head may look round but to make it that round, clean, not wrinkly all stretched n plump look, I had to squeeze in a lot of fillings, but yeah it becomes kinda solid & less squishy because of that.

Make sure you fill the bottom torso properly too, so the head that already filled with that much fillings won’t feel too heavy in comparison.

This is how I did the face, I hand embroidered it, the paper is water soluble, so I can wash it away once I’m done with the face. Mine’s simple one with eyes closed no mouth.

But if you want complete face feature here is the tutorial.

Here’s a YT vid link on how to connect the plush body parts.

More about connecting parts, here’s a YT video link of how to do invisible sewing technique also known as ladder stitch.

Now let’s move to the hair. For the bangs, I made sure they have clean edges for better performance and here’s the YT vid tutorial for that.

Let me be transparent. Pros n cons of my plush. Pros: clean stitches, very shaped, & plump-looking. Cons: head & bottom are bit solid, harder to maintain because hand wash is preferable (you have to be strong enough but still careful to properly squeeze the water out during a full body wash, with that, you also have to make sure you have stitched the parts well so it doesn’t break after being squished, this one is depending on your stitching skills, how sturdy you stitched it).

Maintenance: hand wash. Use cold water to prevent the filling from shrinking. Use mild-gentle detergent (for babies clothing), brush with sponge when hand washing. Air dry/dryer with no heat. Perfumes/softener are optional but avoid spraying too much or the fluff will get mated, ok to spray a little and brush it with clean microfiber toothbrush to help soften.

So that’s all about my Thistle plush patterns, tips, maintenance & all information I know about it. Apologies in advance if it’s confusing & messy. I only know how to make but very little skill of explaining. Have fun experimenting. Keep in mind that this is experimental, I’m open if you want to share better techniques/easier ways including the maintenance, either in the comments or reblogs.

Here’s more of my Thistle plush progress silly documentation pics.

Thank you for being patient!

hiya !! possibly a long shot, but, i was wondering if you'd be open to sharing the pattern you did for thylacines-toybox's Thyme? totally okay if not, assuming you still have the pattern at all! i figured it couldn't hurt to ask, either way ^-^

Here ya go! Have fun! This is designed to fit on an A4 piece of paper but as long as you scale everything the same it can be smaller or bigger. Apologies there's no instructions but it's basically a traditional jointed teddy pattern- you can use cotter joints or safety joints to attach the limbs and the head, OR you can just stitch through it and use buttons or something on the outside. The head can be attached as the one in this tutorial: https://www.funkyfriendsfactory.com/blog/see-how-to-sew-a-traditional-jointed-mohair-teddy-bear/ Or this tutoial might have a better illustration: https://teddybearart.com/how-to-make-a-teddy-bear-part-2-step-by-step-tutorial/ The limb joints can be done like this: https://teddybearart.com/how-to-make-a-jointed-teddy-bear-mastering-limbs-with-discs-and-cotter-pins/ Here's some more options on how to construct it (Buttons vs cotter joints): https://teddybearart.com/simple-teddy-bear-sewing-pattern-limb-attachment-thread-and-buttons-vs-cotter-pins/

The ears are stitched on afterwards by hand and the eyes can either be safety eyes or glass eyes.

Have fun and I would love to see it if anyone decides to make one! Here's my little thylacine made from this pattern! (I divided the parts up a bit to add more colours)

DISCLAIMER: this pattern is designed with an 1/8 inch seam allowance because I sew by hand and the plush normally is SUPER tiny (about 5 in. tall). Scale the pattern up as much as you need for your process. To be clear this is not based off any of the makeship plushes.

Dotted lines are only for embroidery reference. All pattern pieces cut twice are mirrored.

If you actually make one of these PLEASE send pictures!

If you catch any mistakes or have any questions feel free to ask me!
