make a custom plush doll

	How to make a custom plush doll by urion It took me 1 day It made me "Time consuming but very rewarding!" How I did it: I didn´t even know how to sew when I took on this project. Well, one might say I still don´t! I just bought some flea-market pants for the cloth and a set of needles and threads, and got moving. I started with a very simple pattern and got a simple but cute end product. After the first one I´ve made 7 others, and intend to continue whenever I have the time. Lessons & tips: Don´t expect your first to be your best. Don´t expect it to be easy work if you´re sewing everything by hand: I´ve had plushies take up to 8 straight hours. Resources: Patterns at deviantART! Making the first one off a pattern really helped out in understanding the construction. 1 person found this helpful Nov 26, 10:23AM PST \| 0 comments \| 2 cheers

How I did it: It took 14 hrs from start to finish to make my first custom plush doll. I was just getting to know my new sewing machine, and I had not sewn a stitch since 9th grade (17 yrs ago or so).The end result was totally worth it!I now make custom dolls for friends, family and customers, and will have a shop opening on etsy.com in the new year. Read how I did it…

HelloKelsey

Couple's Christmas Present 2 weeks ago

My boypren moved far away with his family this past summer, and I visit him often, but of course we still miss each other! He’ll be moving back here with me in the summer, but for the time being, I wanted to make him something special for Christmas.

So I started making doll versions of him and I! :P
I plan on keeping the Bobby doll, and giving him the Kelsey doll,
so that even when we’re far apart, we’ll still have our doll versions with us!
xDD TOTALLY dorky, right? But, still. :P

There’s been a whole lot of trial and error, but hey, it’s a learned experience. :P
I need to have them finished my Christmas!

In fact, I’ll go work on them again now. :]

I put up a picture of one of my first tries.
I have to admit.. I think she’s pretty cute. xD
Pretty basic, maybe. But still cute! :P
(And in case your wondering… her little feetsies are under her dress! :P)
