Kip the KEEPSAKE DOG Pattern<\/a><\/strong><\/span> is an unjointed \u2018sitting toy\u2019 designed for memory toys, decor or playtime. The collar and cute bone-shaped name tag piece are included in the pattern!<\/span><\/p>\n

He’s an easy, non-jointed memory toy pattern with LOTS of options: <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What size is Kip?<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n

Kip is 31cm\/12 inches tall<\/strong> (sitting)<\/strong>. He has “fixed” legs, so he stays in a seated position. Here is a pic of me with 3x Kip Keepsake Dogs – so you can see the size!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

YES!<\/strong> I have created a step-by-step photo tutorial<\/strong> so you can see EXACTLY how to sew Kip the KEEPSAKE DOG Pattern<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/span> – with lots of clever toy making tips and tricks! <\/span>As usual, you can access the tutorial using the link in the See-Me-Sew section of the pattern.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Is this an EASY pattern?<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

Kip looks like a traditional ‘jointed’ memory bear\/toy BUT he is an unjointed toy\u00a0 – so no need for jointing! PLUS you have the option to sew his felt nose and optional eye patch on by machine as you sew him, which some people find easier that attaching details like this AFTER stuffing. Of course you can still sew the nose on with a hand stitch (my favourite) or attach it with fabric glue ~ even easier!<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Kip has LOTS of cool features!<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n
