I really want to make a plushie, but I don't know how. Is there a certain way to make them? I want to make a chibi of Kain Highwind from Final Fantasy IV, but there's no patterns or anything. Also, what's the best material to use?

Ok, I'll tell you how to make it.
First your gonna need the following:

1 cup sweetened flaked coconut
1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher or coarse salt
3/4 cup dark brown sugar, firmly packed
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 cup butter, softened
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

1. Preheat oven to 375*F (190*C).
2. To toast the coconut and walnuts or pecans, spread each out onto a separate baking sheet. Toast in the 375*F (190*C) oven until they're golden, stirring each frequently. This takes just a couple of minutes. Watch closely, as they will burn easily. Set aside to cool.
3. In medium bowl whisk together the flour baking soda, baking powder, and salt, mixing well. Set aside.
4. Cream sugars and butter in a large bowl using an electric mixer at medium speed until texture is fluffy and light in color. Add eggs and vanilla; continue to beat an additional 3 minutes or until creamy textured.
5. By hand, stir in flour mixture until just mixed; gently fold in the chocolate chips, toasted coconut and walnuts.
6. Drop by tablespoonfuls onto parchment-lined or non-stick baking sheets, 2-inches apart.
7. Bake in the upper of the oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until lightly browned, turning the baking sheet around halfway through the baking time to allow even baking of the cookies.
8. Transfer cookies to wire racks to cool. Store in tightly sealed container.

Oh, can't you take a joke?
I already gave you my honest advice, giant rats.

She wants ACTUAL replies here guys. None of this poncing around making jokes. She has a low tolerance for that sort of thing when all she wants is a straight answer.

1. Design the form you want and make blueprints - paper sketches will work but if you have a 3-d modelling program on your comp that'll probably be best.
2. Collect some soft fabric and stuffing foam stuff.
3. ????
4. PLUSHIE!



Edit: Does anyone here have any experience with sewing and misc. textile engineering? I sure don't. The most I can do is reattach detached buttons, and I mongle that awfully. However I have a natural talent for engineering - possibly from the hours upon hours I spent with Legos as a kid - so I can understand the basic idea here pretty well.

Double edit: I know there are webstores that sell things like this, at least Jap ones, so if you look around you might be able to find something similar to what you want and base your design off that.
