In the Animal Crossing games, you've always been allowed to design your own clothes, signs, carpets, and posters. In the 3DS game Animal Crossing: New Leaf, however, there's even an option for those of us without any artistic talent. With the new QR code reader, found in The Able Sisters shop, you can immediately import textures and textiles from other, more talented villagers. Welcome to Animal Crossing New Leaf Designs! Please don't ask for QR requests, as I don't do them. I haven't made any of these QR codes unless stated otherwise. Feel free to inbox me if any of the codes aren't sourced properly.
While this is one of the easiest ‘upgrades’ you can get in Animal Crossing: New Leaf, it has come to my attention that it is easily missed. You won’t need to spend money, but like other tasks, it will require a few days to get results.
What is the QR Code machine?
It is a pink “sewing” machine that will allow you to scan QR codes of custom designs, and create your own. This way you can get new patterns and pieces of clothes from different online websites at your own leisure.
How to unlock the QR Code machine?
All you have to do is head to the Able Sisters’ store everyday and talk with Sable, the brown porcupine that is always sewing, for 10 days in a row. The first couple of times, you will receive nice treatment, as Sable is devoted to what she does and rarely gives herself time to stop and talk. She is also reserved so only by forcing her to acknowledge your presence, you will eventually cause her to get familiar with you. After a while you will get some interesting conversations about their past and she will set up the machine in the store for you to use.
Where Can I get Animal Crossing QR designs?
The easiest way for me has been to simply type the following in google, “New Leaf QR Patterns“, and click on the results. Many tumblr blogs have devoted themselves to create a collection from of the best designs that have been around even before the game was released outside of Japan. If you need a place to get started, you can try out QRcrossing.
If you have anime, cartoon or a videogame characters in mind, you will most likely find designs about them. It really helps you customize your town more and doll into your own preferences. You can also get floor patterns that will help set not only walkways but fake pools and decorations that enhance your town’s looks.

Horned Hats
Horned hats, as they're typically referred to as are a style of hats worn by some of the players in the original Animal Crossing games, the design of the hats always match the shirt design worn by the player. So for example, if you wear a fishbone shirt, your hat would also feature that design. However the hat style would always remain the same featuring horns at least for the male characters, female characters wear more cone-like triangle hats with hair coming out from either side. Now sadly, thanks to all the upgrades and additional customization options added with every new iteration of Animal Crossing like new hats and new hairstyles and colors, these horned hats disappeared and were no longer the default headgear. There is some good news though, these horned hats never truly disappeared completely and are still available in New Horizons now. Unfortunately, these horned hats cannot be obtained natively or designed within New Horizons. But they are definitely not hacked items and are legitimately available.
QR Codes
Despite not being able to make them using a custom pro design pattern in the game, they can be obtained using old Animal Crossing New Leaf QR codes. In the New Leaf days, when you made a pattern you could save your design to specifically be worn as a horned hat and it's those QR codes that can be brought back into New Horizons. There's no need to boot up New Leaf in order to make one of these. Thanks to a fan made pattern designing website - acpatterns.com, you can use any horned hat QR code you already have, and here are 5 popular QR Codes shared by Mayor Mori.
1. Fish Horned Hat
2. Gracie Horned Hat
3. Mario Horned Hat
4. Blue Horned Hat
5. Work Horned Hat
How To Create & Get Horned Hat Into Animal Crossing New Horizons
1. The simplest way to start is by visiting the acpatterns website and uploading or designing your own there to create your own. You can simply draw out your design or upload an old texture which can be found on google or one you made earlier.
2. Once you've completed drawing, you can save the information then generate a QR code and save it for later.
3. Next, scan the QR code into New Horizons as you know the Nintendo switch doesn't have a camera, so to do this you need to use the Nintendo switch online app that's available on most smartphones. Once you've linked your Nintendo account in the app, all you need to do is select the designs app and press either scan a QR code, using your camera or scan from a saved image.
4. The final step is to head back to New Horizons and open up the custom designs app on the Nook Phone and in the pro design section, press the plus button on the joy con or pro controller to download a design. This will then search your Nintendo switch online account for the QR code that was just scanned.
5. Then all you need to do is wear it.
That's everything you need to know about the horned hats, how to create them and how to get horned hats into Animal Crossing New Horizons. Given New Horizons was made to work with all available New Leaf QR codes, you can upload or scan any designs you want. It's pretty awesome and a huge throwback for the horned hats and fans of the original games. If you are looking for buying popular hats or clothing, AKRPG provides the cheapest ACNH clothing items.
