This is the original sketch I drew that inspired the softie:
I know the sketch is REALLY rough people, so don't judge. ;) I really like the horns in the picture, but then as I was playing with fabrics the fringe was just calling out to be hair, so, the horns were ditched in favor of the crazy, rocker style hair.
I hand stitched her face, then pinned her all up inside out and machine sewed her body. Then I stuffed her and hand sewed up the small hole I had left to turn and stuff her and TA-DA!!
A fun, SUPER soft (it's performance fleece as Old Navy calls it), crazy haired softie for my son to throw around. Assuming the cats don't get to it first. I swear my cats think that Eme's toys are really their toys.
I'm Linkin' Up!! Check out my side bar for a list of FABULOUS Linky Parties. :)
That's really fun ... it reminds me of the Veggie Tales characters.
