The Most Adorable Giraffe sewing patterns

If you know a kid who loves giraffes and why not create a unique, hand-stitched stuffed animal?

It’s hard to find the perfect stuffed animal when your child loves something different to the norm. Giraffes are tall and elegant or gangly and awkward but definitely have a certain charm. Who wouldn’t want a cute and cuddly giraffe of their own?

Funnily enough, my daughter has two stuffed giraffes, but she never believed they were giraffes (maybe because of their bright colours and rainbow spots), so she called them her “Eggy Peggies”.

Whether you want to make a whimsical, colourful giraffe or something more realistic, with this collection of giraffe sewing patterns, you can sew your own unique and special toy, bag or even a costume:
