“Paper towel patterning, where have you been all my life?” I’ve been asking myself while working on my current plush. I’ve seen people do it but never have tried it myself. But now I have and boy, am I glad I did! So here I am to try and encourage you all to join the club.
Using paper towels to pattern is great for draping clothes, hair, or any other flowy things on a plush you have in your hands. It would not be good for patterning bodies from scratch. You can easily cut it, draw on it, add extra pieces to it, etc. Paper towels will act more like fabric than normal paper would! I use Viva paper towels. They are a bit more cloth-like than most paper towels, but any should work; they just might not lay quite as nicely. |
