Well, some people have asked me how I make my plushes, so I've tried to make some sort of a tutorial, taking photos of the whole process to try to help.

1. This is some kind of a pattern, although it varies depending on the plush [link]
2.This is how I make the faces: I draw them on Photoshop and print them in that paper for shirts. Then I cut each part separately and iron them to the felt
PLUSH EYE TUTORIAL: [link]
3.To make the head, I'm sure anyone can say a thousand better ways, but this is how I make them: I cut a strip of felt as long as the head and sew it around the face, leaving a hole for the cotton
PLUSH HEAD TUTORIAL : [link]
4-5.I sew both body parts, leaving spaces to put wires and cotton inside. Wires aren't necessary, but the plush comes out more resistant and its pose can be changed
6.I sew the head to the plush. This is the common point for all plushes. There's only making the clothes and details left depending on the plush
7. Making the feet (I don't make them to almost any plush)
I haven't taken photos of how to make the clothes because I totally improvise as I go

I suppose the trick to make plushes is using the parts that won't be seen to put seams and ugly stuff. For instance, I used the parts under the clothings to make knots or whatever I need. You can calso see the undershirt isn't complete, as the other one is sewn on top. If something isn't going to be visible, I don't make it. I didn't take photos of the hair making process, but if you want, I can make another turorial for that with the next plush.

I hope this has helped and please, if you use it to make a plush, send me a link with the photo, I'd love to see how it comes out

No problem. Love the work. Good job. It will, no doubt, and should becoe and remain a classic example of Deviant art's best cute work. For real.

Nice job on the plushies. Are those wires really all it takes for a plush to stand on their own? I've been experimenting to try to get my plushies to do that

The wires makesΒ the plush more resistant and its pose can be changedΒ 
To make them stand on their own I make big feet like these:Β

How does your plush stand? Wouldn't the head be too heavy to balance the stand? Just curious.

The one in this photo is held by the plant that is behind him.

These others can stand by making their feet bigger

LiyuConberma In reply to nitanita [2013-06-21 18:14:26 +0000 UTC]

Do their feet have some sort of hard cardboard to support their stand? Or just fabric only?
