Free Pattern Friday! Raccoon & Red Panda Plush

Hi everyone!
A raccoon really skyrocketed to the top of my pattern poll! I had the most fun designing him to be especially chubby to channel that ‘trash panda’ vibe And while I was at it, I also made a red panda variation! I already have a free red panda pattern, but I had gotten requests for more, especially after the Turning Red movie.
This pattern has decent amount of darts in the head and body as well as some tricky curves in the legs. You’ll need to work carefully to line up the points around the legs. But if you pin carefully and work one section at a time it will go a lot easier With all that in mind, I rated it a 5/10.
As always, the pattern comes with applique templates to make the face details. These will work if you’re sewing the details by regular machine or by hand. If you have an embroidery machine, you’ll find the embroidery files available for download with the buttons below. It includes the face for both the raccoon and red panda, as well as the nose. The ear meanwhile is sewn in the hoop.
I hope you all like it, and thank you to everyone that voted for it!
