So I made Rudy yesterday as part of the Christmas in July event. I ordered the pattern from Banberry Place in San Antonio and sewed in up in about 3 hours total.
The instructions were great and easy to follow - I was so happy for this as I have had a hard time sewing little things in the past - see the red pig post.
I learned from this pattern to sew the pieces together before you cut them out of the fabric. Makes a huge difference. I also learned that stuffing holes really should be at least an inch and that the wooden skewer is key.
I think that I may make a few more Rudy's as stocking stuffers or present toppers for Christmas.
I am so happy with how he turned out!
