>> YOUR LINK HERE: ___ http://youtube.com/watch?v=qvN99116UgI
This week we’ll show you how to make a fun and customizable stuffed toy also called a plush, plushie, or stuffie using a downloadable pattern and hand sewing techniques. • This project is great for beginners and uses a running stitch around the edges to sew the plushie together. The pattern has 3 basic shapes but can be adjusted and combined to make a variety of plushie styles. Download the pattern at https://bit.ly/idealabplushie. • Learn more about ideaLAB programs and spaces at denverlibrary.org/idealab. • Tag us in your makes on social media with #idealabmakes! • Join us on Saturday, December 5, 2020 at 2 PM MST for a live online workshop where you can make the project along with an instructor. Details available at https://www.denverlibrary.org/event/S... • To make along with this video, we recommend: • A printed pattern to trace - download a pdf at https://bit.ly/idealabplushie • Felt or fabric - a fabric that doesn’t fray around the edges works best • Pen or pencil to trace pattern onto fabric (use chalk or white pencil for dark fabrics) • Embroidery floss and/or hand sewing thread • Sewing needle - with an eye big enough to fit your choice of thread • Scissors • Sewing pins or clips - you can also use paper clips, binder clips, or clothespins • Stuffing - fiberfil/polyfil stuffing, scrap fabric, or plastic bags • Decorating supplies - you can use buttons, jewels, pom poms, paints, or other craft supplies • Optional materials: • Needle threader • Craft glue or hot glue to attach decorations • Chapters: • 00:00 Introduction • 00:22 Tools and Materials • 01:26 Using a Pattern • 02:21 Adding Decorations • 02:58 Pinning the Project • 04:04 Stitching It All Together • 06:36 Stuffing and Finishing • Additional resources on plushies: • Sew a Plushie Instructable - https://www.instructables.com/Sew-a-P... • Sewing How To: Running Stitch - https://www.instructables.com/sewing-... • Embroidery How To: Satin Stitch - https://www.instructables.com/embroid... • Embroidery How To: Back Stitch - https://www.instructables.com/sewing-... • Free cat sewing pattern - https://swoodsonsays.com/free-cat-sew... • Easy Eye Options for Applique - https://www.shinyhappyworld.com/2017/... • Books: • Kawaii craft life : super-cute projects for home, work play by Sosae Caetano and Dennis Caetano (2019) • Stuffed animals: from concept to creation by Abigail Patner Glassenberg (2013) • Creative creatures: make-and-do crafty creatures for kids by Donna Wilson (2013) • Flip dolls other toys that zip, stack, hide, grab go by Laura Wilson (2013) • Invasion of the plush monsters! : wickedly weird creatures you just gotta sew by Veronika Gunter (2008) • #plushie #diy #sewing #stuffedanimal #stuffie
