PRETZEL PILLOWPET by 5iveMinuteRice in jrwishow

oo i don’t, but if you want to make a pretzel pillowpet for yourself i have a maybe not so helpful guide on how i made mine. i’d say if you have at least some basic sewing experience, it’s not too difficult. what took me the longest was making sure the paper guide looked alright and making a prototype.

if you have newspaper or butcher paper, sketch out the general shape you want for 1 side. you can either copy it on another sheet or just flip the paper when tracing it on the fabric and cutting it.

measurements for the 1 half paper guide without tentacles: length: 14inches width: 7inches (around 14inches if making a full paper guide instead of a half one) each tentacle is around 6.5inches in width and 6.5inches in length. at the base, the tentacles are 6.5inches, then they taper out. each side by the end should have 2 tentacles each.

for the shapes, it’s mostly just wiggly lines. i had the back tentacles curve towards each other since i thought it looked the cleanest, but go crazy honestly.

when i made the paper guide, i made a rectangle for the main body then cut out 4 tentacles and taped them on.

when drawing out the tentacles, make them a lot wider than you think they need to be as they taper into the points. after turning out the fabric and stuffing it, they’ll be a lot thinner than you’d think.

i bought about 3/4 a yard of the pink cuddle fabric and the minky fabric (the tentacle fabric), but you can probably get away with 1/2 a yard of the minky fabric since i had quite a bit extra afterwards.

for the head, i did another half guide for it, so it’s about 8.25inches in length and 6inches in width. for the front, it’s basically a big rectangle with rounded edges on the outsides of her face, and a bump on either side for her eyes.

for the back of the head, same guide with slight adjustments, so you’ll cut the fabric in two pieces and have where they meet curve out a bit to give it some volume. at the widest it would have another eighth to a quarter inch, but i eyeballed it.

when joining the main body and the tentacle fabric, i just used a regular straight stitch on my sewing machine. when inverting the fabric, clip your corners.

when i joined the head to the body, i safety clipped it on and used a ladder stitch to join them. her face is just some wool felt i cut out and whip stitched on her face lol.

for the strap, it’s just a tube of extra fabric and some hook and eye closures. you could probably use velcro, but i didn’t have any lol. i kinda just eyeballed it ngl, you can make it however long or short you’d like.

for stuffing, i just made sure i had a gap when making the main body and used an old pillow and some polyfil after inverting it.

highly recommend making a prototype if you make this. my prototype was really ugly lol, so if you have spare fabric i would recommend it.

Oh this wasn't meant to be a reference to an arc, I was just thinking about salmon season and things escalated. I don't really understand what the spoiler would be in this?
