Pixie Pea coat with Bear Ears

So impressed with this pattern and the instructions I am thrilled with the result. I can't wait to sew more of these coats . After sending an email to get advice, the reply was prompt and very helpful.

Thrilled with this pattern

I couldn’t be more pleased with the instructions and clarity for this vest. I’m excited to have a pattern that can grow with my kid and all the exciting animal add-ons and possibilities. the only instruction I wished was clearer was how to best make the ossicones stand up straight.

Sewing for grandbabies

I wish these patterns with their add ons, tips and hacks had been around when my children were little. Instead I get to sew for my grandchildren - probably a more fun option. Patterns are easy to follow. Thanks Twig and Take.

Outstanding and versatile pattern!

Wow!! What a great pattern!! Honestly I want one for myself! Super easy to follow, taking you thru it step-by-step. I did a Bear pathfinder for carnaval but with beautiful fabric so my girl can use the vest again and again. The garment is absolutely stunning! See the pics!

Perfect and endless pattern

Mon fils voulait un déguisement de dragon pour carnaval, après de nombreuse recherche j'ai enfin décourvert T+T <3

Patron très facile à réaliser et dont le rendu est dingue!

J'ai déjà également réalisé une version croisée dans un pull feutré du papa pour ma mini. Just ouahhh!!

Je recommande ce patron!

Love how this pattern can look so different

I've made a few Pathfinder vests and they are all so different. Not only the fabric, but the various options in the pattern can make such a difference.
