So Paige asked me to sew this thing, called a Kuriboh. It's from Yu-Gi-Oh apparently? Anyways, photos!





It's about 4 inches tall and 6 inches across, according to dad's estimate, not including the limbs. (/too lazy to measure shit 6 u 9)





There are a LOT of different fabrics in this.

Brown (body): faux fur from Joanne Fabrics. Not...great quality. Feels like a dead beaver. Shed like a mofo, of course, but that's to be expected.
Yellow (eyes, claws): non-pill fleece.
Green (limbs): ...well, it calls itself non-pill fleece. It's very stretchy and a bit softer than I'm used to fleece being, though. Got it from Joanne Fabrics.
Purple (both shades in the eyes): minky, from minkydelight.com.



I think it came out quite well, especially considering how much I dislike the primary fabric and how quickly I cut out the pieces :D I still prefer to sketch out a plush and figure out the pattern before cutting it out, but I can do things like this on the fly as well.

Next sewing project will probably be a scarf! :o I found this sort of sweatshirt fleece fabric that has a beautiful sugarskull sort of pattern on it and I really want to make a scarf for myself from it. I LOVE SCARVES.

Nice work! Especially the designs on the claws and feet. I look forward to seeing the scarf, too!
