Finished Butterick Popple plush! Possible Butterick commissions?

[Khoufu]

So, this was my first plush: Spumoni the Popple, lover of retro nostalgia and cold drinks. Most of my sewing experience is from making wearable fursona tails.

Not bad for my first plush, but it took me a few minutes to figure out that the lines of the pattern are where you cut, not where you sew. Despite that annoyance, I may be tempted to try a Pony or Care Bear pattern. Does anyone have examples of plushies made from Butterick patterns, especially those two?

EDIT: I'm considering taking on 2-3 commission slots for handsewn Proud Heart Cat made with the Butterick pattern for $50 each. I'll find a better way of doing the eyes before then, though maybe the eyes won't look so wide against non-white fur. I may later do Treat Heart Pig, Loyal Heart Dog, or Playful Heart Monkey.

This is a dumb, unrelated question, but what are you using to post photos?  There's like a certain subset of people where I can't see their photos and you're one of them.  And I wanna see your Popple.

That is such a cute plush, Khoufu! Well done!

Sadly I have no examples to offer. I'm working on a Snuzzle plush from a Butterick pattern now, definitely will post when she's done though.

Thanks, all!

Very cute! At first glance I thought this was an official plush, so fantastic job on your first plushie!

Sooo cute! Well done

Thank you everyone! I'll probably replace the eyes with something more friendly. I'm thinking of doing commissions with Butterick patterns if I can get at least 2 people to buy any given character, starting with Proud Heart Cat because he's  $500 for an original orange/tan plush, while I could charge maybe $50 for a handmade one. Does that sound like a reasonable price?

Maybe also OCs? Other characters whose official plushies are rare or nonexistent from the 80s.
