Here are more of my Harry Potter dolls, including patterns and tutorial. This post includes Luna, Ginny, Neville, and Draco, but I also have 2 other posts with more characters. Click here for Harry, Ron and Hermione. Click here for Dumbledore, McGonagall, Snape, and Voldemort.
Patterns for Harry Potter Dolls
To get an idea of what the finished characters look like, from a pattern perspective, here are the guides you can use when assembling:

Attached are the patterns for Luna, Ginny, Neville, and Draco. I just cut out the paper patterns, but if you’d like something sturdy, you can trace them onto cardboard or cardstock.
There are 3 patterns to download. One is for the basic student bodies. The other two have the detailed pieces, including hair.
This post contains step-by-step instructions, with pictures included. You may notice that the written instructions are pretty much word-for-word from my other Harry Potter doll post. Why make extra work for myself, right??? If you’d like a more in-depth tutorial, I also have a video!
Step One
Cut out the pattern pieces.

Step Two
Using patterns as guides, cut out the pieces from felt. Feel free to choose whatever colours you’d like!

*Note: for the girls, you only need to cut out one scarf, since the hair will cover the back of their necks.
Step Three
Sew the body and the pant legs. You do not need to sew around the arms. They will mostly be covered by the robes, and they are too thin to be stuffed anyway. If you are great at intricate sewing, then go for it, but it’s not necessary.

Step Four
Stuff the body and the pant legs. Leave some room in the pants so it will be easier to attach the top to the bottoms.
Step Five
Using a glue gun, glue the arms together, the ears, and attach the body to the pants.
Step Six
Glue on the robe, the shoes, the scarf (front and back for boys), and the wand. Before attaching the wand, make sure to glue the two pieces together. It’s important to cut out two of the wands for added durability. I made Neville and Luna left handed because I’m left handed and I feel like we lefties should be represented:)

Step Seven
Glue on the hair, so that you can actually tell who is who:)
Step Eight
Add on the finishing touches: the faces! I like to use acrylic paint for this. I apply with a stylus, but you can use a small brush, or even a toothpick for the fine details. If you aren’t feeling confident in the placement of the facial features, you can lightly draw them on first.

So there you have your Luna, Ginny, Neville, and Draco. If you need a bit more direction, feel free to watch the video or leave a comment below.
If you are a confident seamstress, you can definitely sew more of the details on, particularly the robe and the hair. I do find that the hot glue holds really well once it is completely cool. If you don’t love sewing at all, you could definitely try gluing around the edges of the body and the pants. Let it cool completely before trying to stuff it.
