Description Tada~ My little Eeyore plush is finally complete! :'D
I made this from scratch for my friend's birthday [06/25].

About the project:

It took me maybe three or four days, give or take. I don't really time myself or anything on these things, haha.

The dark gray, gray, and pink felts were purchased at Michael's. I used navy thread, because we didn't have black OTL [shh~, you can't really tell XD;]. The hair and eyes were cut from scraps of black fleece that my mom uses to make blankets. He was stuffed with Polyester FiberFill.

I drew two patterns, one for the sides, and one for the belly/inside of the legs. After that, I kind of just improvised and cut out the hair, ears eyes, and bow as I went. Heh heh~ [by the way, there's pink on the inside of the ears, you just can't see it in this picture]

He's about 9.5 inches long and 5 inches high. A little smaller than what I had aimed for, but sheets of felt are kind of small-ish. Maybe I'll try using fleece some other time.

This was my first time making a plush like this, believe it or not! I've made other sewn crafts before, but none as complicated as this. I feel pretty accomplished :3

Anyways, this was a lot of fun to make! I love sewing~ = u= <3

Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry for this reply being ridiculously late.

My patterns are really just trial-and-error! I draw them without ever knowing if they'll work out or not, and improvise as I sew.

Don't give up! You'll succeed as long as you keep trying ; u;

Thank you! Glad to know someone likes him :3

This particular one was a gift, but sometime in the hopefully not so distant future, I'd like to sell the things I sew. Unfortunately, I haven't had the time to just make things, and I still need to find out how I'll ship the things I sell, so it's still a work in progress.

Glad to see that people are interested, though!
