About this pattern

Start part one of our Suzy dolly cuddle toy sewing pattern.

Craft a cuddly new friend with Amanda Walker’s Suzy dolly sewing pattern. This straightforward 3-piece design by Amanda Walker creates a charming rag doll with clothing options. The handmade doll is made up from just three pattern pieces, making the construction quite straightforward – most of the work is done on a sewing machine, with a small amount of hand stitching. This doll has also been given a choice of outfits including a dress and jacket; keep an eye out for part two to make Suzy a pair of dungarees!

Top sewing tip

A polystyrene ball adds form to the head but if you can’t get hold of one, stuffing with filler will work, too.
