Soft Sculpture

Idea:

I decided to do a “shabao”, which is a kind of toy that my grandma made me when I was a kid. normally it will be a cube, but I want it to be special, for example, a jellyfish.

when I design it, I tend to make it with a tentacle because  “shabao” usually is used to play games like dodgeball. So when you throw it, these tentacles will fly with the body ideally.

Process:

 

I leave an edge around the piece. When I was trying to sew up the body, I sew it from inside, the backside, and then flip it over afterward, and the stitch will be hidden inside. It will be more stable and clean.

It is filled up with yellow beans instead of polyfill, so it is heavy enough to throw.

I used yarn to make the tentacles.
