Puffin Sewing Pattern with Templates

January 23, 2024 by ·

Most people agree that the Puffin is a funny looking seabird. And that’s what makes it so adorable! Our sewing pattern comes with templates in two sizes: 9″ and 7 1/2″ tall.

Reviews for Our Sewing Patterns

More about the Puffin Sewing Pattern with Templates

We are rating the puffin pattern as intermediate because of all the curves and multiple parts and pieces, but the pattern is easy to follow with step-by-step written instructions and more than 20 color photos. The tracing templates can be enlarged should you want a larger puffin, though we think the larger 9″ bird is the perfect size for hugging.

The puffin is sewn with a traditional 1/4″ seam allowance. There is a little bit of top stitching, as seen on the bill. That makes sewing the small fabrics much easier. And of course, there is the ladder stitch which creates and invisible seam where you turn the puffin right side out. We have a couple video links to these stitch techniques.

  • Pin Loom Rectangle: 2”x4”
