Baby Dragons

I have used this pattern to make quite a number of dinosaurs, most if which are tucked up in a toy hammock but I’ve made some as gifts for family and friends.

Now I want to adapt the pattern to make a baby dragon.

Prototype Really happy with the first draft of the dragon. The wings turned out really well, they do stand up but not quite as much as I would like. The spikes didn’t turn out that well down the back so small edit required there.

2nd draft Adjusted the spikes and like these much better. I tried stuffing the wings a little bit but don’t like the effect of that. So I will Be going with the wings as per the green dragon with a bit more interfacing and the spikes on the blue one.

These are adorable! Did you have to hand stitch them?

Mostly machine sewn, hand stitched to close the arms and attach the head.

These are lovely. My sister made a pterodactyl like this for one of my sons (45 years ago, give or take). It has been loved by his sons, and is tucked away now for a few years....

Those are so adorable! I saw them on the social and think they are fabulous. Well done you for adapting the pattern.

Team dragons are in progress, really happy with how the wings have turned out. I’m using toy joints to add the arms on so they are the next stage before sewing the heads up.
