Teafibers

This isn't exactly a full blown tutorial but more of showing how I made this cardinal for my mom. If you're planning on making your own, I hope this can be of use to you. My felting fibers of choice are polyfil stuffing and acrylic fibers I make myself with yarn and a wired pet brush. I have no issues with wool, I'm just cheap and find it more convenient because I always have stuffing and yarn on hand. Supplies I used Barbed felting needle Polyfil or wool Fibers in red and black  2 mini glass doll eyes  Polymer clay Brown embroidery floss Tacky glue 2 Head pins Red felt sheet  Black acrylic paint Orange acrylic paint White acrylic paint Scissors I made an egg shape with a wad of polyfil. On the bottom area of the egg shape, I added more fibers to make the head. At the top of the head, I added a spot where the hairdo would be. With a small amount of polymer clay, I made a cone shape and used a tool with a silicone point to make a line around the side of the cone and flatti...

Aishas are my personal favorite Neopet! In the past I've managed to get my hands on some official merch but today they're harder to find or too expensive. I made an Alien Aisha for myself and ended up receiving some requests for the pattern so here it is so now you can make your own! This is fanart and made for personal use only.  --------------------------------- You can make most colors with this pattern. I recommend using a photo reference of your Aisha to determine what colors you will need. Mutant, Desert, Baby, Darigan, Tyrannian, and so on would need some alterations and add ons that are not included in this pattern, yet. Below are tips on how to make the Alien, Rainbow and Plushie color that requires multiple colors and a few extra steps. Alien   Body, Feet, Tail:  Make all white Neck and Head:  Pick up stitches with white and color change to green at the end or round 8. Ears and Antennas:  Make in all green Use embroider floss or you can needle fel...

This is an old pattern I put together years ago and was made by making all the pieces separate and then sewing it all together. It was originally available on Etsy but I've recently decided to call it quits there and start sharing my patterns for free in this blog. Enjoy!  Supplies Yarn: Medium 4 worsen (Dk yarn will work too but the plush will be smaller) Yarn used in this pattern: Red Heart Super Saver- White (for entire cat), Cherry Red (for collar), Paddy Green (for bib) and Gold (for bell and coin) Hook: US 1 - 2.75mm will produce a cat around 9"-10" tall.

Each cat I've made using this pattern ended up being around 7"-8" tall with ears and tail is 6"-7" Got some velvet yarn in your yarn stash and no idea what to do with it? How about make a simple soft cat plush? I've decided to leave their face blank because I think it's cute, but feel free to add your own details such as doll eyes. What I like about this pattern is it's very easy and quick to build up.   ---------- Supplies  Hook size: 4.25mm, US 6/G  Yarn size: Bulky 5 (yarn used in pattern is Bernat Velvet) Scissors Tapestry needle Stuffing  Stitch marker (optional but recommended to mark the beginning of each row) Optional supplies String or ribbon for collar (I used leather thread) Bell or charm (for the collar) Jumpring (to attach the bell or charm for collar) ---------- Abbreviations mr: magic ring sc: single crochet inc: increase (sc 2 in one stitch) inv dec: invisible decrease (sc 2 front stitches together) ---------- BODY AND HEAD Round 1. s...

I wanted a Marshal plush to add to my own collection so came up with this pattern and wrote it down as I went along to share with other fans out there. He's around 7" tall. For his face and detail, I used the needle felting technique. I will show how I did it but if it isn't something you're interested in, there are other options you can do like cutting and sewing felt/fabric pieces, embroidery and using buttons or doll eyes for example. Be creative!!
