My son asked before we watched Jurassic World. We’ve been to Dinosaurs Island and nagshowing na lang ang The Good Dinosaurs hindi ko pa rin nagagawa. #lazymom
The last time I sew was July 2015, I sew one dozen of pillow cases and after that I forgot to make any sewing project so yesterday, I push myself to sew again. My husband was teasing me when he saw me preparing my sewing machine.
Hubby: Gumagana pa ba yan? Baka kinakalawang na. hehehe!
My son saw me sewing the dinosaur and he asked me,
Ethan: Mommy, you want to be like Wowa?
Me: Why?
Ethan: because you’re making stuffed toy.
I smiled because he remembered the handmade doll that his Wowa made for him, you can check it here and here.
Anyway, here are the steps of DIY Dino Plush Toy
Cut the pattern and fabric.
Pin, sew the fabric (opposite side) and leave a small opening.
Turn the fabric inside out and put the fiberfill inside.
Then hand sew the opening. Glue the eyes.
You can do this by hand but I wanted to use the sewing machine, hehehe! I realized that it is not easy to make a small plush toy and marami pa curves so medyo matagal. Not a perfect dinosaur plush toy but my son was very happy and he even said. “Galing ka mommy!”
But after few hours.
Ethan: Mommy, this dinosaur cannot stand, it needs four legs.
Waah!
Ethan! Mommy, you need to put ribbon at the back (spikes)
Okay, so I need to improve this dino plush toy pag sinipag ulit ako. hehehe!
Good job ka Mommy Michi! The husband gave me a sewing machine 4 years ago and I have yet to use it! Gusto ko din gumawa nyan :)
ReplyDeleteGo, sayang ang sewing machine! :)
DeleteGaling! And super cute as well. :)
ReplyDeleteGaling! I'm not the crafty type so I can never do something like this. Lol!
ReplyDeleteI would love to make this too pag may time. My son loves dinos as well, but I haven't thought of this because I am not really into sewing, but maybe I can try. Thank you for the idea sis.
ReplyDeleteWow ang galing naman! My hubby is the one who knows how to use a sewing machine. Di ko pa na try. Takot ako.
ReplyDeleteTakot din ako at first, actually my husband is the one who taught me how to operate it. hehehe!
DeleteHahaha. The dinos cant stand. But nonetheless, you are one sweet mommy. I also have a portable sewing machine and I havent been using it for months. Your post maybe is a reminder for me to get it and start repairing my husband's and kids' shorts. Thanks for this!
ReplyDeleteCute dino! Too bad he can't stand.Maybe you can place something for support, like the one used to make picture frames stand.
ReplyDeleteThey look like something you can buy at IKEA :)
ReplyDeleteThese are so cute! I'm not big on sewing but would try for something like this. :)
ReplyDeleteThese are sooo cute! I hope I can make cars plush toys for my twins. Kelangan ko ng magpraktis magtahi ulet!
ReplyDeleteAwww dinosaurs! My daughter is weirdly into dinos these days... This plush toy seem pretty simple to do, i'm gonna make her one, one of these days! Tnx for the tip!
ReplyDeleteWow slow clap for you mommy. Ang galing mo!
ReplyDeleteYour sewing machine looks handy. Hindi scary i-operate. I didn't learn how to sew. Atin-atin lang ha, baka mabasa ng Home Economics teacher ko. Hehe. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteDon't worry pareho tayo, I just learned to sew when my husband gifted me a sewing machine. hehehe!
DeleteCutie! I envy you because I don't have a knack at sewing. I bought a portable sewing machine before and tried it for the first time after 5 years. I kinda broke it after though. Fail! Haha.
ReplyDeleteThese are so cute! My son will love these because he's into dinosaurs too. I can't really sew though. The last time I used a sewing machine was way back in high school.
ReplyDeleteHahaha kahit they can't stand, they still look absolutely adorable! Hope you can keep them as memoirs
ReplyDeleteAwwww ang cute cute! The last time I touched a sewing machine was when I was still in high school hehehe.
ReplyDeleteThis is sooooo cutie! Gusto ko rin gumawa! Waley lang ako sewing machine. :( Where did you buy the eyes sis?
ReplyDeleteNBS and Japan Home. :)
DeleteAng cute :) And definitely a cheaper way to make stuffed toys :)
