Ø Design effect drawing
Specifically draw the appearance of the plush toy, from the front, back, side to draw, only in this way can our idea achieve the best design effect.
Ø According to the design effect drawing, determine the size and proportion of the sample
According to the design effect drawing, determine the proportion of the drawing, and according to the sample size, determine the proportion of each part of the physical sample. The toy pattern should be started from the whole, starting from the large plate, generally from the body, so that it is easy to expand other plates according to this, easy to modify.

The design of the cut piece through the actual plush toy material through repeated production and modification, so as to achieve the closest to the design effect.
Ø Determine the cutting
After the trial production to achieve the best result, we will determine it and draw it down, including the material, color, hair direction and so on.
