I’ve been super busy with blogging and traveling so I skipped doing a costume this year (BOOO, I know), but I couldn’t let the best holiday of the year go un-plushed.</p> <h1>My Plush Candy Corn Pattern!</h1> <p>As a part of my ongoing effort to completely crowd my home with plush, I designed a new pattern this year:<strong> plush candy corn</strong>!</p> <p style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/164937344/plush-candy-corn-pattern-pdf-sewing?"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2302" alt="Halloween Plush 2013 candy corn pattern" src="/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/candy_corn_basket.jpg" width="512" height="341" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/candy_corn_basket.jpg 512w, /wp-content/uploads/2013/10/candy_corn_basket-300x199.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px" /></a></p> <p>I <strong>love</strong> candy corn, and I always thought it’d be fun to create and sell a sewing pattern on <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/WeirdLittleFriends?ref=l2-shopheader-name" target="_blank">Etsy</a>. At the beginning of October I launched my very first downloadable PDF pattern on my Etsy shop, <a href="http://weirdlittlefriends.etsy.com" target="_blank">WeirdLittleFriends.etsy.com</a>. If you’re a sewing beginner, this pattern’s for you!</p> <p style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/164937344/plush-candy-corn-pattern-pdf-sewing?"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter" alt="Plush Candy Corn sewing pattern pdf downloadable instructions" src="/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/etsy_plush_candy_corn.jpg" width="342" height="462" /></a></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/164937344/plush-candy-corn-pattern-pdf-sewing?"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-2300" alt="Plush Candy Corn pattern downloadable pdf instructions" src="/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/etsy_plush_candy_corn3.jpg" width="342" height="462" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/etsy_plush_candy_corn3.jpg 570w, /wp-content/uploads/2013/10/etsy_plush_candy_corn3-222x300.jpg 222w" sizes="(max-width: 342px) 100vw, 342px" /></a></p> <h1>Lucy!</h1> <p>What’s cuter than an albino snake? A two-headed albino snake!</p> <p>Lucy might spook some folks but she’s actually super friendly. Lulu (the left snake) and Cici (the right snake) like fluffy blankets and strawberry ice cream. Lucy’s kind of a one-off design that I probably won’t add to my Etsy shop unless some crazy demand for adorable two-headed plush snakes comes out of nowhere. :)</p> <p style="text-align: center;"><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/Lucy_2.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-2297" alt="two headed snake albino pink Lucy cute" src="/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/Lucy_2.jpg" width="498" height="400" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/Lucy_2.jpg 830w, /wp-content/uploads/2013/10/Lucy_2-300x240.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 498px) 100vw, 498px" /></a> <a href="/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/etsy_plush_candy_corn.jpg"><br /> </a>Lucy is totally inspired by “Medusa”, a thirsty but conflicted two-headed snake.
