Take this plush and STUFF IT

Plush You invites you into a world of more than 100 lovable—in a three eyes, ten arms, USO (unidentified stuffing object) sort of way—handmade toys to sew and stuff. Soon you, too, will be a softie when you fall for: Wiggle, the Sweater-Wearing Tooth, who lives next to your sweet tooth and hides from his arch enemy...toothpaste.Foxley Bagel, whose best friend is a fish who thinks Foxley is also a vegan. But, Foxley keeps a few secrets in his tail.The Cockeyed Sock Monkeys who have perfect vision—in one eye—and never take it off of you.Packed with inspiration from more than 90 plush artists from around the world, and complete with step-by-step instructions for making 15 unique projects, Plush You will inspire you to replicate these quirky creations or invent one of your own.

You might be too old for stuffed animals, but you're never too old for a plushie. Create your own social circle of irresistibly charming, wickedly funny imaginary friends.

Synopsis:

Plush You! is an inspiring showcase of plush toys from more than 100 emerging international plush artists. Readers will recognize the hip (and often zany) style that is the DIY toy phenomenon. 25 plush toys with patterns/instruction come together with an inspirational showcase of 100 plushies in an irresistibly hip book. In addition, many of the plushies feature personal bios (likes, dislikes, etc.) providing added entertainment. Readers will delight at stuffed space creatures and lovable monsters, along with plush doughnuts, the occasional cut of beef, morphed farm animals and other squeezable subjects.

Plush are soft, stuffed toys. Animals are well represented, but Plush can also be a stuffed piece of toast with butter on top, weird robot creatures, or abstract 3-D figures that are somehow cute.
This book features the latest in the D.I.Y. Plush movement with plenty of full-color photos. A handful of sewing projects are scattered throughout, but I'm more inspired by flipping through the pages and looking at all the cool creations by Plush artists around the world.
