How to Make a Whale Shark Plush

This tutorial is designed to accompany my whale shark sewing pattern which is available here: beezeeart.com/products/whale-shark-sewing-patte…

This is an easy pattern and a good project for beginners. There's no complicated techniques and not a lot that can go wrong here.

F.A.Q:

Q: What material are you using?
A: I'm using Minky. The white is Shannon brand minky and the patterned fabric is Michael Miller brand fabric with stars and moons.

Q: What are those tools you use to turn things?
A: Hemostats. You can find them on Amazon or Etsy, they're primarily a medical supply tool, but work great for turning things right side out and stuffing. Also reaching tools you drop that are just out of reach.

Q: Why do I have to pay for the pattern?
A: Making patterns is very time consuming and can take anywhere from a week to a month or more to create the pattern. Then I spend 1-3 days filming, editing, and uploading the video. All of this is on top of the years I spent learning my craft and learning to use each program required to digitize the patterns. It is not something I can afford to do for free. Creating plushies and sewing patterns is a full time job for me so if you like my patterns or videos and you want to see more, purchasing my patterns helps support my business and keep me creating.

Q: What kind of sewing machine is that?
A: It's a Pfaff Performance 5.0

Q: Do you take commissions for custom plushies or patterns?
A: No, I don't, sorry! But I do offer many of my plushies in different colors on a made to order basis and I have a list available of people willing to take commissions from my patterns on my website's blog.

Q: I have a suggestion for your next pattern!
A: Great! I'd love to hear it! Just please don't assume that because you suggested it I will create it.
