My Little Plushie

Today I'm working on plushies to see how they sell at a few events. These will be hard to sell because I can't sell them when I'm with my partner because she makes crochet plushies.

Either way it gives me something new to try.

I use this pattern here: http://voodoo-tiki.deviantart.com/art/Beginner-Pony-Plushie-Pattern-1-319925160

Her sewing tutorial is a good one too. http://voodoo-tiki.deviantart.com/art/Beginner-Pony-Plushie-Tutorial-319926863

It's an ok pattern, but there are some issues I've found. It's a personal thing possibly. Either way it's been a fun process.

This is what it looks like once it's all sewn together.


Here is what it looks like flipped right side out.

And here is one after some stuffing.
As you can see above I need to finish stuffing that one and then sew up the neck. This is what the neck looks like right now.

Once this is suitably stuffed and sewn up I can then decorate the outside with hair and tail and whatever other extras I want to add. 

This is a fully stuffed one. Ignore the blue. Her names Inkwell for a reason. :P (That and i was dumb and used a pen to trace out the pattern. Don't use pen on felt. )

Here's one with detail work. I glued on the hair, printed out eyes and sealed them with modge podge then glued them on. 

Here she is all done. The cutie mark is painted on and her face details are simple stitches.

One last touch was some small glasses I made out of wire and glued to her face.

Like I siad the pattern has weird bits, so she sits funny. I could be sewing it wrong too, but all of them so far have sitting issues. ??


Feel free to ask questions, leave comments, etc. I"m always up for a chat!
