I always wanted a Sandbar plushie, but I could never find one I liked. So I decided to buy an embroidery machine and make my own. :-D  
This proved to be the start of my own little plush factory, so expect to see more plushies in de near future.
 
Sandbar was made from original Minky and was filled with cushion-filling. I’ve filled the bottom of the hoofs with poly-pallets to give him some extra stability. He is about 40 cm (16 inch) tall.  
Including a couple of test runs in fleece to try out and re-adjust the patterns, it cost me about 50 hours to make him.
