- Prepare your tools for battle ; felt, scissors, floss, stuffing, needles, anything you want to use in your plushie. Keep it close to you so you don't have to panicking searching for later use.
Step TWO
- Prepare the sketch, design, doodles, or just use your imagination straight!
What? no idea?
here's a tips ; Do anything that are really personal and close to you, it didn't need to be something fancy or hard stuff. Your beloved pet, your family, or just plain cute things like kitten or puppies will do. Just have fun with it!
For this time i'm making my beloved snow foxi ( note ; this is my hubbzy's signature )
Step THREE
- Transfer the design into the felt, I'm using just pen to do it because it's faster - or sometimes just do freely whatever cute stuff come in my head at the moment XD
Step FOUR
- cut cut cut cut cut...la la la la ( ok sorry no photos, i forgot to take it, just imagine I already cut it ok ).
Step FIVE
- Before attaching all the parts, better do the embroidery first ( trust me for this). I use the back stitch, satin stitch, and for the eyes I use weaving stitch.
Try this site, it have almost all the embroidery tutorial and it's really easy to understand.
let's begin to stitch! be careful not to accidentally poke someone with your needle.
tips : be patient! enjoy the pain-staking moment...uh oh... :p
Step SIX
- Add a little teeny-weeny heart for your lovely plushie. Why? Everyone need heart of course!
Attach it in the back of the plushie ( now you can see all my messy stitch, oh my ).
Step SEVEN
- Make your personal signature. It can be your name, nickname, logo, or anything you fancy. I try to make my logo but since this is my first time, well, close enough! XD
Step EIGHT
- Now let's join all together and stuff it, use some beans or rice for the bottom part also so it can sit on their own : 3
Step NINE
- It's done! free to hug it, play with it, admire it, and give it lot of love. Don't worry about some error or imperfection too much. It's what it made it more special one of a kind.
Here's the final one with the close up detail :
Have fun!
