Description
Things you will need:Mini Dashie
Sewing Scissors
6 pieces of felt
Light blue thread
Sewing needle
Cut your pieces of felt to look like those pictured in the photo. The long similarly shaped pieces will be her tail, the claw like pieces are her bangs, and the three similarly shaped pieces are the back of her mane. I didn't want to attempt my normal Dashie mane pattern on pieces this small because it would be an absolute nightmare to sew. So, this tutorial will be detailed and simple.

Where did you get the pattern/template?

I came up with it myself. I did not make the mini dash, but the mane and tail are original.

I didn't realize that you could actually modify the mane and tail on the mini-plushies. I got a Rainbow Dash for Christmas (what can I say, my parents know me well), which I love. I am just not a fan of the mane she came with (it looks like Dashie has dreadlocks!). I definately plan on modding her soon though. Thank you for posting this tutorial.

Sigh. If only the faces on the official plushies looked better.
But this definitely makes the hair look better

Yeah, the whole shoestring mane thing was an awful idea. XP

Yes, but for the 10 inch usually I make the strips of fabric into tubes. The small RD is hard to customize, because it's difficult not to make her mane and tail look too poofy.

Thank you so much!! I'm doing this as soon as I can find the right color felt. The hair she comes with annoys me so much >.<
