We continue with the hedgehog love today and I direct you to this adorable little softie:

Pattern is provided in a PDF and instructions are well written and illustrated. A Sizzix die cut machine was used to cut out all the little spikes on the back (roughly 65 pieces in total) and each spike is then handsewn on to the body.

Loving the texture on this hedgie, created by the ruffles on the body:

Pattern is in JPEG format and each step of the process is clearly written with excellent photos/diagrams. The ruffles are hand-stitched onto the body after the body has been stuffed and sewn up.
