Vinnie the Plushie

Don’t think you guys have been introduced to Vinnie, but he’s Dana’s plush polar bear.  (I think he makes his debut in the middle of NTDOS)

Anyhow, when I was at Fabricland buying material for the NC tote bags, I saw this pattern and had to pick it up. I also managed to luck in and find the perfect material. It wasn’t overly cheap but this little guy is fairly small so I can get several of them out of a 1 metre length of fabric.

I can’t even begin to tell you how soft the fur is! When I found it on the bolt, I grabbed it and nuzzled it with my face, and it was just a hunk of fabric, but I couldn’t help but cuddle it.

So yeah, that’s where this idea came from.

I was thinking of the possibility of selling them but haven’t decided on a price yet or if it would be worthwhile. (The pattern is fairly easy but it’s a bit small and tedious) but note me if you’re interested.

This little guy I think it about 9 inches tall and I think the larger version is around 12 inches, but don’t quote me.
