You all knew after THIS what was going to come next...

Yes, it's a huggable, snuggable, (undressable ) Ed plushie in his stereotypical red coat. The coat is made of a red velour... sensual and smooth... damn Zap Brannigan... Anyway, his trousers, belt and boots are made of PVC to mimic leather and the rest of his clothes from black polycotton left over from Allen. The insignia and white details are acrylic paint. The body, as before, is cotton jersey and white cotton sheet fabric, but the automail is shiny metallic fabric which I found in the local haberdashery. I made the automail as ' authentic ' as possible, with a small amount stitched onto the torso as a ' port ' and on his left leg it stops at knee level. True, this is hidden detail but I know it's there Another 25-30 hours of hand crafting without machines, done mainly while re-watching Heroes season 1 and the odd episode of Lost.

I definitely have the plushie making bug now. I have planned to craft Haruhi Suzumiya and Ichigo from Bleach next, but they probably won't be until the Easter holiday or even summer as exam revision kicks in from now.

The picture at the end is mainly to show Ed's automail, but there was a slight level of fangirl humour on my part I put him in the wicker chair with my other creations while I was finishing his clothing and it struck me that Pippin-cat had got lucky ^^

NOT MAKING ON COMMISSION! Want to give it a go yourself? Try here for basic patterns, although bear in mind I customised mine heavily.
