Gir Keychain Pattern



Felt is the best material.

 I'm sorry that I've neglected this blog - but since Halloween is up, why not come back out of my hobbit hole now? Don't worry, I'll try to be here as much as possible now. You can enlarge this or free-draw this to make a much bigger Gir plushie (just remove the long strip of fabric). Comment on this if you have any questions or comments.

Totoro & Friends Pillow (Double-Sided)

Symbol for sleep, the little Totoros, a sootsprite and a sleeping catbus

Sleeping Totoro's face tilting to the side.

This was the first pillow that I made from an organic cotton t-shirt (or any) and I think I did a good job. I wanted to make Totoro's face a bit more comical and so kept some of the thread out and added a sighing bubble. Recycled polyester on the interior and exterior and a lot of detailing. This pillow took me three days to make (as all of them do) but it was really worth it when I was finished. It was so soft and squishable!

 

Ponyo Loves Mom (and the Environment)

A double-sided pillow that I made for my mom's birthday. It's super-stuffed with recycled-polyester and made from an old organic t-shirt that I didn't like anymore. The felt is made out of more recycled-polyester fibers and the whole thing is hand-stitched. When I showed it to her she absolutely loved it! I hope that you do too. I won't keep you out of the fun either - pretty soon I'll start making tutorials so that you can make stuff like these and more.
