That is what I did yesterday. Made a plush brobee. It's pretty wonky but I am EXTREEMLY proud of it! The amount of problem solving that went into that thing was pretty immense considering I didn't have a pattern or any real experience with making these types of things. I've made plushies before, (see burma & ...oh crap, can't find the other one :0(...so this is kinda a plush) but they were just simple shapes. This one was pretty complex.

I only messed up once! and it was minor! Usually, when i sew things, I always do something out of order or sew up the stuffing hole or put the seam on the wrong side or ...whatever. Everything went smooth this time and in order! except one little thing which was no biggie.

It is really difficult to sew a bunch of thick fur / felt layers plus stuffing in the sewing machine! hense ... the wonkyness of it. A lot of it is hand sewn as well (wonky!) and he's more of a lime green, but my camera washed out the color.







He has a side pocket ...for his "tummy." I'm going to make little carrots and chicken drum to go inside. :0D

If you have no idea what i'm talking about:

*points to icon* i LOVE when he says "yeaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh" cracks me up every time.






Process!





and. i made a little stuffed heart with my name and the date on it and put it inside of his stuffing. awwwwwwww.

I'm giving it to my friend tomorrow so I decided to post now without the carrots and stuff finished, b/c i doubt i'll feel like working on it until some odd hour in the morning -- and I won't be home by that time. so just a process photo of the carrots:
