Looking for a fun toy for the kids? Snakes are a blast to play with and they look great in a wide variety of fabric! This step-by-step sewing tutorial has printable templates to make a 21″ long snake. What makes this particular pattern unique is the eye hood. Some snakes have what appears to be a brow above their eyes…so we’ve added that feature to this pattern. It definitely gives this serpent an aura of invincibility.

The safety eyes used can make a big difference in how “sinister” your snake will look. We used various colors and sizes of safety eyes to demonstrate how that one little detail will impact the look of your stuffed animal.
