When we decided to use a rag toy in the final image of our film, we talked about getting the right kind of toy; (something that looks hand/home made, for a young child). We found that toys we already had weren't right for us and so I decided to make the toy from scratch. I used an old pair of socks and some stuffing. I cut and stitched the socks into a basic body shape, then added the stuffing, ensuring that the limbs remained limp and raggedy. Finally I added the head, upon which I hand sewed blue wool to act a hair. I drew on a simple and child friendly face with a fabric pen to complete the toy.
EXCELLENT CREATIVITY, Connie. Not only imaginative but also executed very promptly. You are an asset to the group as always!
