How to train your plushie dragon?

If this dragon plushie is not scary enough from the outside, it's high time to see its inside!
Don't come any closer!
No matter how scary the dragon is, I loved making it - I felt like an architect or engineer while creating the sewing pattern: which part should go under the other, what to sew first and next, how much to add to the tummy and so on.
First a drawing turned into another drawing, I mean into a sewing pattern

Layers of felt: this is how you can create your own dragon toy
Pretty complicated inside, outside
Ever wanted to turn drawings into soft toys? Think twice :-)
And the result: a tamed custom stuffed dragon
