Description
I know it isn't right to ask for it, but PLEASE, if you use this tutorial:Thanks! ^^
---
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

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

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

Awesome plush! Although, I know a GOOD way to make it even better!
Have you tried finishing and turning the the body and head inside out? It akes it cleaner! ;3

nitanita In reply to Patsuko [2010-08-28 20:44:20 +0000 UTC]
I do this sometimes, but the felt I use it's to thick, so it's a bit hard, cause when turning the shape of the plush could get weird
(sorry for my bad english ^^")
and thanks! glad you like it

Patsuko In reply to nitanita [2010-08-28 21:13:56 +0000 UTC]
Yeah I agree. xD
It's cool, and also if you leave the whole big enough, it won't be as bad. You just have to be careful :3

Stuff like this is the reason i could really use a suture. those needles are the shit for sewing plushies and pillows. Maybe i should just bend one of those cheap dollar store needles.
This had some good photos that I could use to get an idea of the proportion of the head to the body. I've been having trouble drawing patterns.
