Yup! My stuffies from Annie’ Knit Animal Friends are coming along, though they are currently stuffies without faces. I’m still deciding on how to go about that. I’ll tell you why I don’t want to do what the patterns recommend in a sec.
First of all, the doggie looks much better than the anemic-ly stuff rabbit. As I said in my previous post, I didn’t have enough stuffing for him. He doesn’t look bad, just, well, sad.
I did get more poly fiber fill, as the very full doggie shows.
Now, as to why there are no eyes on both and a nose of the dog. The pattern calls for simple embroidery, like the satin stitch and the straight stitch. As you can sort of tell on the rabbit, I attempted to do the satin stitch for his eye. It looked horrible, so I sort of tore it out.
I tried buttons. With what button I had, it didn’t look right. What should I do? I open to suggestions. I’m learning towards gluing googly eyes on them, too, but I don’t have them right now. I think little pom poms might work, as well. Ideas?
So, that’s where my stuffies are are the moment. If you are interested in checking out the Kindle edition, click on the affiliate link photo below.
Cute stuff…ies. 🙂
