[EDIT:  If you are coming here via HGTV's "That's Clever" after seeing Jessica's segment on plush alpacas - Hello!  You should go check out her new website Plushroom Soup and see what she's up to now. - Amy]

Many of you already know that I've decide to launch my own brand, called Plushroom Soup. For those that don't know, Plushroom Soup is my new line of original and off-beat softies. It's a lot of the same kind of softies you've come to love, but will trending more toward the odd, the mythical, and the fantasy. I will be debuting some items from this line at No Coast this year. A sneak peek:

Also new at No Coast will be two patterns that Amy and I cooked up: an alpaca and a horse.

Mega props to Amy for doing all the interior drawings on these! The patterns are also available as a PDF download in my Etsy shop.

The print version of the pattern includes full-sized pattern pieces and detailed instructions folded together in a cute little half-letter-sized booklet. The PDF version also features full-sized pattern pieces and detailed instructions and is set up to be printed double-sided on standard letter-sized (A4) paper, landscape orientation.

To celebrate the new patterns and the launch of Plushroom Soup, I'm hosting a giveaway! Head over to my new blog for details!
