Angry Bird Plush Valentine

Nothing says "I love you!" like a handmade Angry Bird plush! ;)

A few months ago, I showed my husband a tutorial I found for the red Angry Bird at the blog Obsessively Stitching. After he saw it, he wanted me to make one for him...so I finally made him one and gave it to him today for Valentine's day.

I sew on the details differently than the tutorial. I use a zigzag stitch instead of a straight stitch and cut out the pieces before I sew them instead of after. I also decided to use black safety eyes for the pupils instead of felt.

Obsessively Stitching has patterns for the other birds too, as well as the pigs (she provides links to those tutorials on the post I linked to). I'll probably make those eventually too... since I know CJ wants them!
