These horses were sewn for a children's riding club, a club for young riders that wanted a horse mascot plush of its own. So this is not a toy from a shop shelf. It was made to order for that one club, as part of a corporate order.
The idea behind it is simple. A horse with a red heart on its side: friendship, care and a love of horses, the things a riding club is really about.
A horse drawn with a few lines
Nothing here tries to look like a real pony. The body is a soft cube, the head a long flat block, and the eyes are one black curved line each, closed, as if the horse has just come back from a slow walk in the meadow. The mane and tail are loose strands that fly back, and the legs are thin, so each horse looks mid-gallop even standing still.
A shape this plain is harder to sew than it looks. The cube has to keep its corners, the head has to sit at the right angle on a thin neck, and the heart has to land in the same place on every horse.
One pattern, seven colours
This was a batch, not a single toy. Once the pattern was settled, we sewed it again in white, cream, charcoal grey, sage green, warm yellow, chocolate brown and sand. Every horse got the same red heart. Lined up together, they look like a whole stable.
That's often how a mascot works for a club or a company. One design, then as many horses as you need, in your colours: for members, for a tournament, for a team photo, or as a thank-you gift.
Your club, your mascot
Tell us about your club and send whatever you have: a logo, a sketch, a photo of your favourite pony or just a few words. We'll work out the shape with you, match the colours, and add a symbol like this heart, or your emblem, embroidered. On request we can also add a sound module, LED lights or poseable legs.
More team and brand characters are in Mascots, like Hugo the Lion for a football club and the Black Terrier for a dog club. Want a stranger horse? Look at our long-necked horse plush. For bigger runs and factory patterns, see Patterns & Prototypes.
The horses are sewn from safe, eco-friendly materials, soft enough for kids to carry around all day.
The fabric is a short, smooth plush. It keeps the cube body neat at the seams and shows off a clean colour, which matters when one design has to look right in white, yellow and dark brown alike.
- Soft short-pile plush for the body, head, legs, mane and tail.
- A flat red heart appliqued on the side of the body.
- Black closed eyes, one curved line each, appliqued on the head.
- Soft stuffing inside.
For your mascot we match the plush colours to your club's colours as closely as we can, and the heart can become your own symbol.
A mascot like this usually takes 2–4 weeks. That time includes a safety reserve, because handmade work can bring a surprise or two.
Most of it goes into the first horse: getting the cube to hold its corners, setting the head at the right angle on the neck, and placing the mane strands so they fly the right way. Once that sample is right, the pattern is fixed.
Ordering a batch in several colours, like this one? We'll tell you the timing for the whole run when we quote. Need the horses for a tournament, the end of the season or a club anniversary? Put the date in your request.
We ship worldwide. Once the horses are packed, delivery usually takes 7 to 20 business days, depending on your country, the carrier and the shipping method.
Around big holidays couriers get busy and parcels can run late. If the mascots have to arrive by a set date, such as a riding show, a summer camp or an awards day, order early and tell us the date.
Several horses for different branches of the club, or for different addresses? Say so when you ask for a quote and we'll plan the shipping with you.
Since 2009 we've been sewing custom plush toys to order, including mascots for clubs and companies, and batches of the same design in different colours.
Mascot orders run under their own terms. Before we start, we agree on the details with you: size, colours, the symbol on the side, how many horses and any extras. When the mascots are finished, you see photos of them before they ship.
The design stays yours; we only make the plush. If you want the same mascot sewn again later, or sewing patterns for a factory, the terms are on the Patterns & Prototypes page.
