PATTERN ONLY
This listing is for the pattern to make Beast and his clothing along with Belle and her outfit for the ball.
Belle is modelled on my Matilda Doll patterns and so, her clothing and hair are interchangeable with the dolls from the rest of the collection.

I was so excited when I heard there was to be a live-action movie of one of my most favourite fairytale couples that I just had to get cracking and design Beauty and her Beast in celebration thereof.

I have made my Beast a friendly sort of chap to reflect the big heart that Belle uncovers in their story.

Even now that their little photo shoot is over and their pattern is uploaded, they still stand side by side on my desk and make me smile every time I glance at them.

I hope you and the little people you make them for will get just as much delight out of them as I have.

Finished size:
Beast – 48cm/19inches
