Bombs Away!

September 1st, 2008 Carey Leave a comment Go to comments

The last of my Plush You toys for this year. Despite my husband suggesting the name Dropy McSplat I think I am just going to call this guy a gremlin, the kind that wrecked airplanes, not the kind that you cannot get wet.


He has the same base as this blue guy I made last year. But this year’s model sports spiffy goggles and a parachute.


The parachute was a real challenge to make but a lot of fun. Boning in an i-cord casing makes a frame that holds up the chute that is attached to the swanky backpack.

    Wow. I love his innocent expression “Who, me?”, the swanky bag and the two-color goggles. How about “Splat the gremlin?” Thanks for sharing your construction info about the boning, too. It looks flawless. :D

    first off, you did an AMAZING job on this guy!!

    i ADORE him!!!

    i do have a question though, how did you do the stitching with the fabric on the feet? its so clean and neat! was it just very careful sewing? or do you have a specific technique?

    thank you!
