This little chap was great fun to make. He has a fantastic texture on his back and the nice repetitive pattern taught me how to make bobbles.

It took me about 4 hours to sew all his pieces together at the end but it was time well spent as I am very pleased with the resulting dinosaur.

The only changes I made from the pattern were:

• I sewed his spikes on after assembling the dino as the blunt needle I used to assemble his body was not able to sew through the felt. I just used a regular sewing needle with white thread and it seemed to work fine.

• I thread jointed his rear legs so that he can stand on all fours or flop down on his belly.
