how to make your own beanie buddy!!
first: sacrifice a beanie D: this was a damaged and worn zip the cat. farewell sweet prince. thanks for your service. anyway take that beanie to bits
iron the pieces and trace them to make a pattern (make notes about how to reassemble NOW before you forget!)
Ask your sister to use her work printer to blow up the pattern from A5 to A3! thats four times bigger!!
get some plushy fabric from the craft store and get tracing and cutting (using medical scissors from that surgery you had four years ago)
SEW THAT BABY TOGETHER and then pick apart the head because you messed up AND THEN SEW IT BACK TOGETHER PROPERLY!!
make a little face :3 eyes, nose and whiskers!!
fill that beast with BEANS using your sister's hamilton shotglass (and some fluff for the head and body)
sew her up.... and take some photos!!
optional step: repeat the process to make some siblings!
This is the PATTERN ONLY, this does not contain detailed sewing instructions, and assumes a working knowledge of plush sewing and (optional)
If you specifically want a beanie baby cat a sewing pattern can be bought on gumroad! Otherwise go thrift a beanie baby and rip that pattern for a big buddy
