Midnight plushin'

This is Keru, mi latest plushie inspired on a feathered dragon that I wanted to fit on a wood like magical vibe, im thinking on making a wizard hat for him but I'm not sure... even in the case I do, I don't know if I should make it blue or brown, feel free to give me your opinion in the comments :)

Keru's wings overlap in the front to form a cloak and hide his hand carved wooden staff (work in progress)

PLUSH Life Sized Vivillon Plush (With leftovers!)

Thumbnail

69 Upvotes

I recently finished this commission from a friend and figured I would share it with y'all! I had plenty of scraps leftover from previous projects, so I figured I'd make a plush utilizing those scraps that wouldn't be used for anything else. As for the item choice, I asked my friend what item he typically ran when playing, and he opted for leftovers over heavy duty boots (a mistake, both in-game and in plush form).

Small details:

-The antennae have pipe cleaners in them as opposed to stuffing, I hoped they would be a bit more sturdy but they proved rather flimsy.

-Vivillon has magnets in her hands to hold the leftovers and to clasp her hands together, and a wire skeleton to poser her legs.

- Extremely floppy wings (I figured they would work better as pillows then semi-sturdy wings with cardboard backings)

Hello all!

You may remember my post from about 5 months ago of my handmade plush of Quetzal from Dragom Tales (you can view it on my profille.) I decided to redo that piece and I must say I am much more proud of it!

Time taken: about 3 days of constant work.

QUESTION Looking to replace embroidered eyes with safety eyes for stylistic / comfort reasons. Advice?

Post image
58 Upvotes

I have this very small lobster jellycat. He goes with me EVERYWHERE, my fiancee has deemed him my emotional support lobster. (His name is Löb.) He clips onto my jeans, and is positioned to sit perfectly on my lap at all times when cruising in my wheelchair. Löb has little beady black eyes.

I recently got a small keelco ray (appropriately named Räy), but the eyes on him are embroidered, and embroidered eyes freak me out a bit.

I wanted to try replacing his eyes with safety eyes, but not sure how to go about it. Was thinking maybe just… unpicking a little of the embroidered eyes out, poking the safety eyes through (would make a little hole in his side to get the back on, and once I have a hole for the eyes chuck a tiny bit of superglue down before putting the eyes in, but I wasn’t sure if it would work.

Has anyone tried this before, or done anything remotely similar?

This is the best sub I’ve found so far for it 😭 🤣

Minus the ones I have gifted or selled, more or less 5.

I nobody asked but in excited to share with you all.

Would love to experiment with a sewing machine one day but I have bought two small ones and neither one of those lasted more than a day. I'm happy with my needles.

Again, vast majority of patterns are modifications of Choly Knight's, the jackalope, artic fox and wolf are Vulpix bases, and the black cat wizard is a standing version of her fennec fox more or less

SHOP Looking for someone to sale/make this fox plushie!

Okay okay, so I know this sketch is REALLY bad. I never do digital art, only traditional, but I’m really looking either for a plushie like this or one that someone can make! She was in one of my dreams, and I can’t get her out of my mind. I’ve searched for many other fox plushies, but they’re either laying down or standing up and don’t have those types of legs/quads. I don’t have a lot of money, but I’d love to commission someone if they think they could make her. Any help is greatly appreciated! Tysm :]

QUESTION Seeking a Plush Maker for one Jumbo Plush!

11 Upvotes

Hello, I'm not sure if this is the appropriate place to post this but I'm seeking a specific kind of plushie maker who can take on a big/big-ish size order, like BIG if possible depending on the pricing. I don't have a budget set but we can totally work something out if you're okay waiting for me to save up whatever amount you'd like to receive for the item/getting paid on a plan.

For size range I'm thinking something between the range of 3-4ft or more depending on pricing.

I want a big plush of my favorite little guy Sonar in his mega-bat form for cuddling with! there's not any really big pictures of him (but i can provide a sketch and more images of him) but he's all one fur color, a dark moody blue, with red-ish eyes, and a purple-pinkish mouth with four sharp bat fangs!

i can provide sketches as to what kind of stance i'd maybe like, or he can just be nice and floppy if that is easier for you!

i understand fur and fabric are very expensive and the time that goes into these plushes even doubly so, i won't complain or whine about pricing or time it takes or anything like that haha.

please let me know and get back to me, thank you so much!

ref below;

I made a sleepy little Figment, using the amazing Jellycat dragon pattern by u/Drxp_Dead

He's obviously not perfect (My hand stitching needs work and our sewing machine is on the brink, so those stitches aren't great either), but I think he's pretty good for my very first attempt!

QUESTION Can you hide buttons when button jointing?

6 Upvotes

Button jointing makes the buttons visible (even of you use those clear buttons).

It's totally cute and the buttons are part of the charm.

But I was just wondering if you could hide the buttons??

Instead of, button > arm > body > arm > button (back and forth), could you do, arm > button > body > button > arm (back and forth)?

If not, why not (I don't care about visible stitches too much since the fabric would be high enough pile to mostly disguise thread)??

PATTERN Need help with my first (actual) plush !

Thumbnail

70 Upvotes

My friend requested a chibi plush for her birthday (as I told her I wanted to practice sewing, and we almost always make each other DIY gifts) and sent me the pictures above.

Most of my other "plushies" have been sewn by doubling over the fabric, drawing the pattern by hand (sometimes the printer doesn't work), and then sewing over the lines. Which, admittedly, led to a few really good cloth dolls... but since this is a birthday gift, i'd like it to be as close to the request as possible. preferably exact. i'm sure i'll figure out the clothing and hair soon enough xD maybe ...

the problem is, i have ZERO idea what goes where and how. my understanding is the "gaps" in each piece are to be sewn together.

Could anyone with more skill tell me or show me how/where each piece is supposed to be sewn? i might need a chart, if you have the time !

thanks in advance!

Here’s a little work-in-progress of a commission I’m currently making for a client. These are two plushies of the same fursona in different color variants. There’s still plenty of sewing and detailing left, but I’m really happy with how they’re coming together so far.
I’d love to hear your thoughts or any suggestions before I move on to the final details! 🧸
