Awesome tutorial, so easy-understandable.
I do not make plushies but it can be used for creating tiny clothing furniture as well, i think!
Congrats on DD.

Thank you for this! The plastic plushie eyes in my area are of VERY limited colors. With this, I can make whatever color/shape I want!

that's the same problem that i had, so I decided to give polymer clay a chance, and came up with this ^^'

Cool. I'm definitely going to share this.

You might try using a sewing awl when you're pushing the loops through (then you wouldn't need to cut anything ).

nfasel In reply to valleyviolet [2012-12-19 10:04:39 +0000 UTC]

Oh wow, i didn't even know, that anything like that exist
i didn't need to cut my fabric (thank god) because is was able to push through it - it was not too fine-meshed
i just thought, if you use felt there is no other way ^^''

Omgosh that is so brilliant. o_o It's so... simple. It all makes so much sense. Usually I struggle when looking at tutorials, since I'm a visual learner, but all the visuals and the instructions you've provided really made it easy for me to understand. I can't wait to try it out. Thank you so much!

i hate reading much in tutorials, so i made a lot of photos, at least of the important scenes (just forgot to make photos of painting the eyes)
I'm glad that you like it

Augh, I hear you there. I mean, if it's done well, sure, but the more visuals the better. (Personally I think the eyes are self-explanitory so there. Haha)
I do indeed. By the way, I've used this technique on a couple of my latest plushies. They're right here if you want to see. [link] [link]
