Nov 30, 2023 | Blog, Competitions & Giveaways, FFF News

The Dippy Dinosaurs Pattern has been around since… the dinosaurs were around? (Well, not quite! 🤣It’s been around since BEFORE I had a digital camera) They have now had a make-over AND the pattern has a step-by-step photo tutorial. Yipeeeeee – NOW you can see me sew these cuties! 

 

This pattern is ready

to be let loose again ~>

in the WILD!!!

 

 

What fabrics can you use for a sewing a Dippy Dinosaur?

These delightful Dinos can be sewn in most fabrics. The Dippy Dinosaurs Pattern will work well in both non-stretch fabrics (like quilting fabrics) as well as stretchy/knit fabrics (like fleece). They will also look good in all sorts of colours and textures…

Just look at
these lovely
feedback photos…

This sweetheart version of the Buttercup Dippy Dinosaur was sen by Teagan. I think this would make a very cute Valentine toy!

 

Helen B. used faux fur for this fuzzy Dizzy Dippy Dinosaur! Isn’t hey GORGEOUS in fur?

 

This next  fun fellow was sewn in FLEECE fabric by Sew Softies…. 

 

They also sewed this cute Snugglemuffun Dippy Dinosaur using fantastic rainbow faux fur.

 

I love this pretty version of Buttercup Dippy Donosuar sewn by Mignon.P.

 

This fun-tas-tic Dizzy Dippy Dinosaur was sewn by one of our fans using cupcake fleece! Soooooooooo sweet! 💗

 

Paula Blevins sewed this fun Dizzy version of the Dippy Dinosaurs – with a matching fleece heart embroidered on the side. 🧡

 

Paula Blevins also sewed this cute pair! I have to say that the Kitty Kate cat might be a bit cuter than her Halloween coloured Snugglemuffin Dippy Dinosaur – BUT I am a “cat person”!!!!

Arne’t these Halloween toys spookily adorable?

    I realize this is a blog for Dippy Dinosaurs, but I am l am LOVING the Kitty Kate too! My daughter and fam have three black cats, two males and one female….all siblings rescued from our Friends of Felines cat rescue in Salem Oregon! She would love THIS cat and I may have to make one for her to snuggle. (BTW, my daughter will be 38 years old on Dec. 31 so snuggling FFF softies knows no age!)

    Are there any changes to the original pattern and instructions apart from the tutorial?

      Hi Joy, I haven’t changed the pattern pieces, I may have reworded the instructions slightly BUT the important change is the new photo tutorial of course! 🙂
