Soft Animals A-Z

This is an incredible book for anyone who wants to make Stuffed Animals. The directions are clear. The patterns are sizeable and the basic constructions you will learn using this book will help you to create original animals for your ark. Based on your fabric choices the animals can look very realistic (especially the unicorn) or can be fantasy animals. There is something for everyone. There is a yak I love. The walrus can be sized to be used as a chilren's chair.

Great Book but not really for beginners

this book has some great patterns and the instructions are clear. however as someone very new to this type of sewing i found it a little bit difficult. i am sure with practice my animals will start to look like the ones in the book.

Love this book!

I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in soft toy making! This book contains an animal for every skill level, all you need to know is basic sewing. The instructions are well thought out and very easy to use. There is also such a variety in animals that you are sure to find one to make for every member of your family. If you are looking for that perfect book to get you started, here it is!

Best EVER!!!

I searched for a long time in bookstores, libraries, and even online before I found the perfect patterns, and this book has them! Experimenting with materials and eye positioning to create different looks also gives you much more when it comes to your "collection." The only complaint I would have is that I can't find more books by the same author for other animals, 'coz I sure love the results from the patterns she has in this one. Really a wonderful book for anyone who wants to sew nice-looking stuff toys.

amazing

Just imagine how happy I was when I got my copy yesterday. Sometimes we don't believe the cover of a book, but Soft Animals A to Z is really great. I especially like the zebra, unicorn, and ostrich. My son asks me for the monkey. All of the 26 animal toys are lifelike. And you'll be surprised to see even xiphosura, armadillo, and iguana are included. Step-by-step illustrations are helpful. With this book, I could make great toys for my niece and nephew.
