Meet Mr Plattie, a small cute little pink platypus.
This is my very first homemade soft toy, sewn by yours truly. 
Just sewn it yesterday after my sewing mood came back. He is now my 4yo son’s pet. He brought him everywhere he went and even slept with him last night. Oh ya! I am requested to sew a blue blanky for Mr Plattie.
The above Mr Plattie wasn’t complete yet coz at the time I took the picture, I forgot to sew a seam around the bill. Here’s a picture of an almost completed Mr Plattie. The bill looks more real now.
Mr Plattie is resting on my 15mo son’s lap.
I said “almost completed” because I have not given Mr Plattie a proper eyes yet made of either black beads or button. He is currently having a “marker pen” eyes. hehehe.
For the materials, I used Flannel instead of Fleece. Mana mo dapat fleece here. And you won’t believe what I used for the toy stuffing; organic buckwheat! 
I have a request to produce more Mr Plattie but no mood to sew now. I wanna go holiday first. 
To those who wants to learn to sew Mr Plattie, here’s the url to go http://www.allfreecrafts.com/sewing/platypus.shtml. Once you’ve done it, show me ok. 
Stumble it!
