Does anyone know of a company / organisation who could make a one off fluffy toy for a reasonable fee?

Every one I’ve tracked down seems to be happy to produce a couple hundred but I just wanna get a one off character for my wife which I can’t get normally.

Any ideas or suggestions appreciated.

How complicated would it be to make a pattern for it? When I was only 17 I hand-sewed a teddy bear using a pattern: bought the fabric and the stuffing, sewed it together, attached the eyes, and so forth.

What kind of plushy is it?

You could make a request of one of the crafters on [Etsy](http://www.etsy.com/category_top.php?top_tag=toys). I’m sure someone there would be happy to make you a custom order.
