This is my take on Bert from Sesame Street. Made from fleece, felt, feathers, and foam, he is completely child-safe. I am really in a bind right now financially and need to sell him. I am only asking $100 or best offer. (Note, the pins are in the pupils and shirt because I have yet to attach them permanently. Text or call me at 513-405-0764.

Thanks,

Ryan

Hi, I love the head shape do you come up with the head pattern from scratch or did you use an existing pattern? Looks like a good shape

I just made it up. It took some trial and error and a bit of trimming but this is roughly what I did:

It is not to scale though. You will need to adjust the sizes of darts and such to make it work.

It looks great. I might have to take a crack at it
