Easy!

$4.99

- +

These little beanbag mice are the perfect size to slip into a pocket - great pals to carry around. :-)

They're easy and fun to make. I'll bet you can't stop with just one!

Pattern Details

You get. . .

  • A digital pattern delivered by email. (If you're not sure what a PDF pattern is, you'll find more info here.)
  • full-sized pattern pieces – no enlarging needed
  • detailed instructions and lots of step by step photos – you’ll never feel lost or wonder if you’re doing it right
  • links to videos teaching you all the skills you’ll need to make your own squishy mouse – from sewing curves and stuffing, to stitching up that stuffing hole. You can totally do this! It’s a workshop in a pattern!

Size

Three to four inches tall - depending on how slouchy he's feeling - and three inches wide. He’s the perfect size for a little pocket pal.

Difficulty

Easy! To give their bottoms that squishy, settled shape without having to set in a separate pattern piece, you'll use a technique usually used to give depth to tote bags and pillows. Easy!

You'll Need. . .

  • scraps of fabric - light and dark shades of the same color
  • two 4.5 mm safety eyes
  • plastic pellets for filling (I like Fairfield Poly Pellets)
  • polyester fiberfill (I love Fairfield brand Soft Touch Poly­fil Supreme)

Absolutely adorable and super easy to make

Bought the pattern and immediately made it - didn't take long at all. I even made a template using plastic place mat (ordered via Amazon) so I can make many. I also use an interfacing on my fabric (when making animals) to make it easier to handle. I knocked this out in 30 minutes or so. It is so darn cute. I can't wait to give this to my granddaughter. Then I'm going to make another for a little 3 year old girl. Then one for myself. I think I may need to keep a supply on hand - you just never know.

Mischievous Mice/Thrice as Nice

I like mice in all shapes and forms, too bad my cat is a ferocious hunter! My great grandchildren are going to love these, and of course there will be one for me. The pattern is perfect, no detail left unexplained. Great design. I’ve been making stuffies since I was a teenager and am now nearly eighty, but I think most beginners would find Shiny Happy World patterns achievable. Thank you for this.

I've not made any mice yet but I couldn't resist buying the pattern. They look sooo cute. I just need to find a good alternative to plastic pellets for the filling.
