It’s hard to believe that after over 10 years since the original My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic series that these cuties are still so popular! But they scored big on my pattern poll and I did my best to recreate them. I hesitated to try them because there are already so many amazing pattern makers with their own versions of the ponies. In fact I wanted to highlight some of the fantastic resources out there, both free and for sale. If my design isn’t your cup of tea, then maybe one of these will suit you better!

My version covers the classic Generation 4 Mane 6 — which includes Twilight Sparkle, Rarity, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Applejack, and Rainbow Dash. This one is a beanie style plush with poly pellets in its arms, legs, and bottom so you can have it lying or sitting or just flop it around in your hands for cuddling
These characters needed a lot of little details to make their unique character details, so it makes for a bit of a long pattern. So it’s formatted a lot like the Eeveelutions, where each step is marked with an icon so you know if it applies to your character. The body is more like intermediate difficulty, with all the curves in the legs and darts in the head. All the character details do take some extra time though, especially if you’re making a pony with stripes like Rainbow Dash or Twilight. So with that in mind it’s rated a 5/10 in difficulty.
As always, the pattern comes with applique templates to make the face and cutie marks. 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 here or with the buttons below. I hope you all like it!
