A Sonic Christmas.

for my sister I made a Chao plush. she had found a picture of one online and was like. “please make for me!” so I searched around on the internet till I found a pattern, and made one. she loved it so that made me happy. I made the plush out of fleece the body and felt for the wings and pom pom. they were so little I didn’t want to have to buy a quarter of a yard for just a tiny bit of fabric and the little sheets of felt are nice and cheap. for the eyes I used some fabric from my stash. I have no idea what the content is but it seems to have a bit of rubber in it. I cut out the circles then painted the white around the outside with acrylic fabric paint. I then glued them on using a craft glue since I didn’t want any stitching showing. the pattern was super easy, and turned out so cute. I did only do it at fifty percent though since I knew my sister were prefer a smaller and cuter plush rather then a larger one.




for my brother I made him a dice bag out of some Sonic the hedgehog fabric that was in my stash, look familiar? its the same fabric I used to make my sister’s purse for her birthday back in July. again I looked around for patterns and tutorial’s. finally deciding on this one because not only did it have a nice shape it was also easy to make. not that everything has to be easy, but the other one I really liked had tons of button holes and well I’m not real fond of doing those on my home machine. I tried to do grommets on this bag but they didn’t end up holding very well, so I pulled them out and did two button holes, I could handle two, just not the dozen on the other pattern. for the drawstring I took some red quarter inch ribbon and some blue one eighth ribbon. which I braided together. I was happily pleased with the way the contrasting sizing of ribbon turned out. I also fully lined the bag, since the sonic fabric is not that thick, I used a navy blue satin to line it. my brother liked the bag and told me it was way better then the ziploc bag he had been using. which made me glad I made this for him.


I still have two more things to post that I made for Christmas but I will put them in another post.
