I made my first sewn softie this week for a swap on Swap-bot.com.
I found a tutorial on Cut Out and Keep that I liked for the general idea of the little guy. I made him with a faux fur remnant I bought at JoAnn's. I have never used faux fur before but have used materials that shed such as terry and minky. This was by far the messiest material I have sewn to date. The end effect bascially was a Domo-in-need-of-a-Haircut. He's cute and about to devour my soup... oh no!!
I liked him-- just wish I had used Ami eyes and not buttons. Aside from that, job well done :)
