    It looks like 2 half circle that had their flat side sewn up the middle, and then split of at the top around the collar.

    This might work if you put something over the hole of the shoe. http://scargeear.deviantart.com/art/SD-female-high-heel-shoes-376073090

    If you search for a bralette tutorial on CO+K you could probably find out how by just looking at the part of the tutorial where they connect the two cups.

    For the limbs and other skinny parts, I use the end of a sharpie and push the stuffing in with it to make sure I get enough stuffing in. If it's a complex plushie (like a giraffe I made once) where it's hard to get to certain spots when you sew it up most of the way, then I stuff it as I sew.

    You're not alone. one time I made a horse for my 4 year old cosine, and it was perfect. Later on I made one just for fun, and it turned out looking like a anorexic goblin Tongue

    I guess it depends on the material and the pattern you use. I guess my second horse failed, because I used a thicker yarn, and less sturdy fabric. I think it also depends on the level of difficulty

    P.S: Working on your last item I think you're going to like it Happy. Now I just got to scrounge up $20 bucks to ship it.

    If it's made out of fabric you could marble it with shaving cream like the picture below. You can find videos on how to do this on youtube.

    You Could use Shellac... get it SHELLac... haha..... sorry pardon my horrible joke. Anyways shellac is a non-toxic plastic spray that I love to use. what you could do is stuff the fossil with something that will give it its shape and support. then spray on the shellac, and then take out the stuff. The shellac will even give it a shiny finish. Also the shellac won't make it rock hard. But it will make it keep it shape.

    Thanks for the idea. I like sewing big plushies and pillows so I run out of stuff pretty quickly, so this is perfect.

    I like to make a bunch of stuff with old shirts, But then I always end up with oodles of small scraps. I don't want to throw them out so if anybody has an idea for what I can make out of them, I'm all ears.
