Mini Mouse 16 cm Soft Toy – PDF Sewing Pattern & Tutorial + Trousers Pattern

Meet the Mini Mouse — a tiny 16 cm (6.3") soft toy designed as a simple and enjoyable introduction to miniature toy making.

This sweet little mouse has a deliberately uncomplicated construction, making it a lovely project for beginners or experienced makers looking for a quick and satisfying small sewing project.

Unlike some of my more advanced miniature toys, the Mini Mouse has no complicated sewn-in limbs or complex seams. The head, arms, and legs are made separately and attached to the body after stuffing, making the construction much easier to manage at this small scale.

The finished Mini Mouse measures approximately 16 cm (6.3") tall.

This listing is for a digital PDF sewing pattern and tutorial, which includes:

• Sewing pattern for a 16 cm Mini Mouse
• BONUS sewing pattern for a pair of little trousers
• A detailed step-by-step tutorial written in English
• Approximately 50 colour photographs demonstrating the sewing process
• Instructions for making both the mouse and trousers
• Full-size printable pattern pieces for standard A4 paper

The Mini Mouse is a beginner-friendly toy-making project. You don't need previous soft toy making experience, although you should be comfortable with basic sewing.

The tutorial guides you through the steps specific to making this mouse rather than teaching sewing from the very beginning.

If you enjoy making the Mini Mouse and would like to try more detailed miniature toys with more advanced construction techniques, have a look at my Mini Woodland Toys pattern collection, available separately in my shop.

When your mouse is finished, you can dress and style it however you like. The included trousers pattern gives you a lovely first outfit, while different fabrics, colours, embroidery, and tiny accessories can give every Mini Mouse its own personality.

Please note: only the trousers pattern is included with this tutorial. Other clothing and accessory patterns shown in the photographs are not included.

After purchase, your digital files will be available for immediate download.
Print the pattern on standard A4 paper using the “Actual Size” / 100% printer setting to maintain the correct finished dimensions. You can view the tutorial on your computer, tablet, or phone and print only the pages you need.

The photos in this listing are for inspiration and demonstrate different styling possibilities.
