Weighted Giraffe Plush

Cute doorstop giraffe for my Mum's birthday :)
I mostly used the pattern available for free here
http://dollmakersjourney.com/giraffe.html

I altered the pattern a little, I used wooden dowel rods in the legs for added stability, and I used sand in the feet to weigh them down. I also used no glue in the construction of my giraffe, unlike the original pattern. The mane and tail were hand tied onto the doll :)

I can't seem to add what you'll need right now, so for the time being, you will need!:
-Giraffe print fabric
-Teddy bear eyes
-Thread
-Wool (for mane and tail)
-Wooden dowel
-Brown fabric
-Plastic sandwich bags
-Fine sand
