    @24princesses Those are children's crafting beads and you should be able to find them easily in any craft stores in the area where they sell jewellery findings, "googly eyes", cabochons etc :).

    1. Back Stitch - 0:48
    This is used for all pieces where you turn the sock inside-out first
    2. Running Stitch - 2:10
    This creates a drawstring effect which neatly seals the base of the body, head, arms, or legs.
    3. Ladder Stitch - 4:15
    This is used to attach extra pieces like the head, arms, or tail to the body.
    4. Knotting - 4:57
    This is how to close your thread and hide the end.
    5. Attaching Eyes - 5:39
    This doesn't involve a special stitch, but mostly precision in making sure your needle comes out in the right place each time.
    6. Sewing Mouth - 7:26
    I use a very small back-stitch for this, but any sewing technique is okay as long as the lines are clean.
    Extra: Troubleshooting Tips - 9:08
    How to fix tangled or knotted thread. What to do if the thread is completely stuck?

    • @Alegriacaptions
      @Alegriacaptions 2 года назад

      If it's really too tangled, just cut and consolidate with a new thread where you've already been a little before you had to cut.

  • @maqaroon
    @maqaroon  10 лет назад +60

    @My Crafts Hmm it's possible that the ears were drawn too small so there isn't much room for them to expand, or the sock fabric isn't stretchy enough. When you back-stitch the outlines, try to check that the stitching exactly follows the line on BOTH sides of the sock fabric. (I usually have to keep turning the sock back and forth to make sure the line stays straight). What sometimes happens is that the backstitch starts "drifting" off the original line you drew. If this is the case, then it will affect the shape of the ears when you turn them inside out and you won't be able to stuff enough cotton inside to create the round shape.

    back in school it was terrible for me because no one really explained anything about it and expected us to just know, so i grew to dislike it...
    but your tutorials are making me want to try it again! I'm super tempted to try and make an among us plushie for myself
    thank you so much for this! ♥

      @rhiannacruz6283 6 лет назад +2

      Maqaroon Maybe you could make a half circle (but chubby and small) and use some black felt for a nose or maybe a black bead. And do the rest with you're DIY puppy plush. Sorry if this wasn't helpful for you I'm only 10 so I guess I'm just a beginner at sewing even though I had a class! I've only been seeing for 2 years hehe 😅 love you're crafts Joanna!

    • @maqaroon
      @maqaroon  9 лет назад +6

      You're still young and have many years to practise and improve. It's perfectly normal that a 10 year old won't be able to sew as well as a 16 year old or 30 year old (which is how old I am now!) The important part is to enjoy the process of making something and try not to compare yourself to people who are much older ^_^.

    Joana, your sock plushie tutorials really makes me want to do them immediately because of the faces. So cute and actually I watch a lot of your vids and the most recent one that you uploaded I only skipped to the sheep plush because when I first was you holding the three plushies I first glared at the sheep and the look amazed me and I urgently want to make that. By the way I only made 1 or 2 plushies in total and since it is christmas well almost christmas, I want to impress my mom with that sheep plush because she sometimes is having a very hard time and she had been working hard for me always so in return, I will make that for her christmas present. Please stay safe and merry christmas to you Joana I do love your videos so much.

    Lol I actually know how to sew but it's lovely to watch how well you explain all the steps in basic sewing :) I Was sewing as I was watching this video and all the techniques I use are similar to what you explained in the video xD One suggestion: If one decides to attempt to make a longer string: the person will for sure have to pull the string slowly to avoid tangles. Also smaller stitches make for cleaner plushies :D Amazing tutorial as always and will definitely help any of the new comers who want to sew

Now, I can just go to Walmart and get socks to do this with. I also want to know if this applies with the fluffy socks. Does it? I don't know and I have not really seen any fluffy sock tutorials, and if I have I don't remember it.

      +Alona Stepanova Thanks and good luck! The size I used was my own shoe size, european 36. However since it gets stuffed so much, the sock size won't make a huge difference...most adult socks sizes from 36-45 should all give a good result :)

    ah! adorable! is it recommended to use ankle socks or no?

      +Rᴏᴍʏ Gɪʟʟ Thank you! The problem with short socks is that there might not be enough fabric to make the whole body. You can use ankle socks to make these simple head-only plushies like this ruclips.net/video/Xgd6SLqW8lo/видео.html

    Hi maqaroon! Absolutely love your ideas and channel! I wanted to request this for a while now: do you think you can make like... A wolf plushie or like any big cats like Tigers or Lions? I love wolves especially, but since they aren't as plain as a bunny or a simple dog breed, I was thinking you could do a tutorial on how to make detailed sock plushies? My bestest friend's birthday is coming up, and she loves wolves like me, and it would surprise her to know I made an awesome plush all on my own, especially since I'm not very experienced but I do love crafts. Thank you!

    How did it take me so long to find this!?! Can you show how to add indentions in the mouth and using indentions to make arms look like they are tucked into pockets? Thanks in advance.

    • @maqaroon
      @maqaroon  9 лет назад

      lvmykdzz Hmm, it might be a bit tricky to make arms look like they're tucked into pockets. You could stuff the tip very lightly and sew it flat against the body. To make indentations, you have to exit the thread in another part of the body (someplace not noticeable like under a chin or ear) and tug it slightly so it pulls the fabric inwards. Then make a small stitch to fix the thread and sew it back to where it came from. For instance for the quokka mouth, I made every second stitch exit through the chin and pulled on it slightly to create the indentation.
