And she comes with her very own home-baked muffin!

Unfortunately international shipping is really expensive and complicated. Everything I've read and researched online says that USPS is generally the cheapest method for international shipping. Last time I mailed something internationally I made the mistake of using UPS Ground and I didn't consider customs duties and their brokerage fee is outrageously high. USPS supposedly doesn't have high brokerage fees (or free brokerage to some countries) so it ends up being a lot cheaper. A medium sized USPS flat rate box (she is too wide for the small sized box) to international locations outside of Canada/Mexico should be $47.95 according to their website and then there's insurance and return receipt fees. I don't make a profit at all on shipping, in fact everything I've mailed so far I've actually ended up undercharging what it cost me to ship. I wish it was cheaper too!

He's not too bad for a first try! I noticed you can see the threads on the body - on your next plushie turn him inside out after you sew him so all that stuff goes inside and I think you'll be happier with the result. There are some great online tutorials for plushie sewing that show you how to do this.

Thank you! I'm not entirely sure how much they'll be yet. It's really hard to set a price on something that is fair for the material cost and time spent (I'm still a slow sewer so they take me a really long time) that doesn't scare people away. eBay has been really great in that way since it's more open ended and people can decide what they think it's worth.

Thank you so much! This means a lot coming from you as you are one of the plushie makers I've really looked up to during my sewing journey!

I haven't decided on a set price yet, the few I've made so far have all found new homes through eBay.
