Butternick made plush pony patterns in the 80s, so it could be homemade from that. visitors can't see pics , please register or loginThe patterns were for Moondancer, Starshine, and Blossom, but they could've used different color material to replicate any pony. In form, the Butternick patterns looked like the "mouth closed" Hasbro Softies plushies. IIRC the instructions did say to use yarn for the hair.
I think it was homemade or a knockoff. It wouldn't have been too terribly hard for a seamstress of reasonable talent to recreate a pajama case using materials you can find in local fabric shops. Looking at some of the larger pictures the stitching doesn't look like something a factory would turn out, but is more in line with someone hand-sewing a difficult area (the bottoms of the hooves especially).

Yep. not everyone needs a pattern. I suck at the assembly, but I know how to make a pattern. A friend used to pay me to draw out clothing patterns from pictures of antique dolls in their original clothing.
I thought it handmade as well. As I have a cotton candy version with the same eyesxx
