Description
This is my Camel Ride-On Toy, think 'stick horse / hobby horse'...but as a cute camel with a little bit of sass! I created my original camel circa 2012 and completely redesigned it in the summer of 2017. Released September 2017 in a Sewing Pattern & Tutorial.
This is my original design/pattern, hand designed by me then put into a professional digitized format.
