for my in class prototype I decided to try and make a rounded star with a different piece of fabric on the front and back. One side is a soft t-shirt material and the other is brown denim. I call him fraken-star because he definitely could use some work. I know for this next prototype that my stitches need to be closer together and I need to work on closing up the whole at the end
here are my initial 3 ideas for this plush night light idea. ultimately I decided to go with the jack-o-lantern because fall is on its way 🙂 when thinking of ideas I wanted something that lights up but I wanted it to be a little bit more creative. my first thought was a jack-o-lantern with a candle inside because it glows!
the target audience for this plushie is young kids of any gender ages 5-10 who enjoy fall, halloween and stuffed animals (or if you are like me and still love stuffed animals this is for all ages hehe)
the materials I plan to use are orange fabric for the pumpkin itself, brown for the stem, and either black, brown, or even a lighter orange for the face to make it seem like its glowing from within! I will use needle and thread to sew all the parts together. inside there will be stuffing and a circuit that I create with two or three lights either yellow, orange, or maybe one of each
can’t wait to get started and see how it turns out 😀
