You will need:
* 1 soft critter such as a TY Pluffie or Ty Classic
* 2- 20" x 20" Pieces of cuddle for the smaller critter OR
*2- 30" x 30" pieces of cuddle for the bigger critter
DIRECTIONS:
Carefully cute the critter in half across the waistline. Remove a little of the stuffing and the bag of pellets in the bottom. Hand or machine baste each half if the body shut, gathering it so that it measures 3 3/4" ( 4 1/2") for the bigger one.
Square up the cuddle blanket pieces. It is best to lay them right sides together, WITH THE GRAIN AND NAP GOING IN THE SAME DIRECTION!! Cut a 3" or 4" (bigger blanket) triangle pieces off of two opposite corners. Using a plate for a guide round the other tow corners.
Sew the top part of the body onto one squared corner and the feet of the opposite corner. Place both pieces tummy side down on the piece you want to be the front. Then place the fabric pieces right side together, carefully checking the nap, pin and sew around the blanket leaving an opening for turning.
Turn right side out, hand stitch the opening shut, and then top stitch 5/8" around the blanket edge. Both Cuddle and the Pluffies are washable-- VERY BABY FRIENDLY!
