This Felt Pegasus is ideal for intermediate crafters. It requires a little patience and attention to detail, particularly when sewing up her flowing mane. A bit of experience with 3D stuffed animal construction and basic embroidery skills, like straight stitches and French knots, will make this project easier to manage. When gathering materials, don't forget chunky yarn for your pegasus' beautiful mane!
The Pegasus, a mythical creature from Greek mythology, symbolizes freedom, grace, and divine beauty. According to legend, Pegasus was born from Medusa's blood when she was slain by the hero Perseus. Pegasus' wings represent the power of flight and are often associated with inspiration. We hope this project inspires you to seek out wonder and magic wherever you can.
When you create your Felt Pegasus, you'll be using a variety of techniques to bring her to life. In addition to embroidery and 3D construction, her delicate, poseable wings and fluffy hair add to the charm, making her a project you'll be proud to display or gift. This is a perfect project for those who love to bring fairytales into reality with their hands, creating a beautiful piece that will evoke wonder for years to come.
Once finished, your Felt Pegasus is ready to be admired or taken on a magical journey. However you choose to show her off, be sure to share it with us. Join our crafters' community, or inspire others on Instagram with the hashtag #MadeWithLia.
How to Make a Felt Pegasus
- Gather your craft tools and materials. Then download the pegasus pattern on the right hand side at the top of this post.
- Cut out felt according to the pattern using a Cricut Maker/Silhouette Cameo 4 or scissors.
- Sew the legs to the underside piece using two strands of light blue embroidery floss and a whip stitch, working from what will be the inside of the legs. Match and follow the curve of the leg openings, and ensure that the legs are facing the right way.
- Repeat for all of the legs.

I am disappointed this and the dragon are repeats in the Jan 2025 Collection and new patterns are not included.
The forest dragon is a brand new design. We are a small team so featuring a few favorites (and often projects no one has found in our huge library) is a way we can give the time needed to new project and build the collections.
Hi! I cannot see the photo instructions. They are so tiny. Can you help??
Thank you:)
If you click on the image it will enlarge on your screen. You can also download onto your desktop and open in preview.
The head piece lands too short of the dot on the template when stitching, about an inch. I stitched as recommended on the photo tutorial. Even the paper cutouts when lined up seem like it would end short. Any recommendations of how to fix?
Thanks for catching that error! We updated both the PDF and SVG for the head, adding about 3/4″ of length to the head piece. We have also found that sometimes, depending on the felt color or sheet thickness, the felt can stretch a bit more when sewing and might not always match up 100% to the template.
Hi there, I am planning on doing your felt dragon for my son and the Pegasus for my daughter. However, I would like to do the Pegasus in purple colors. Is there any chance you could recommend which colors of felt and thread I should use to achieve that?
I love the combination of Amethyst and Wisteria. They are dusty similar to the greens of the dragon. Both of these have the floss color match listed in the product description. Share photos when you are done!
How do you keep the Legs so straight? My keep bowing outward.
This is why we love the stuffing tool. If you pack polyfil in the legs tightly, it will make the legs stay straight.
Looks gorgeous!
Thanks so much!
Glad you like it!
How do you do the hair
That’s included in the photo tutorial starting at step 16 🙂
