Companion Cube Plushie Sewing Pattern

Companion Cube PlushieLove isn’t over for the weighed companion cube.

Not exactly a papercraft (except if you treat fabric as a special kind of paper), but awesome nonetheless. A sewing pattern template has been posted on how to make your own weighed companion cube plushie. Now you can finally hug your best friend. For best results, try using a thicker grade plush fabric for the corners and the midlines to accentuate depth.

On the downside, making this plushie will require a some previous experience with sewing. And unlike papercraft which everything can be easily glued together, such is not the case with fabrics. The hard part really comes with making the cube’s form and making the closing stitches.

If you think you have enough skill and patience to make this, just click on the patterns below and download them. Just think of the delicious cake afterwards.

UPDATE: Kidiron has posted another instruction on how to create the heart part of the companion cube.

    It’s not a tag. It’s a DVD case to show scale.

    ie: It’s friggin’ huge. About 10″ or so.

    I’d also like some step by step instructions, no matter how detailed. This looks just SO much more win than the official one that’s yet to be released. Plus it’ll be fun to make. :)

    Thanks

    Yeah, i was going to make my boyfriend a paperweight but recently found out he liked stuffed things. so step-by-step instructions would be a god-send.

    this is so much nicer looking than the valve one, btw.

    I’m not sure how old this thread is, but are there any other instructions to this? If so how do I get them?

    I need to get started on making one for a Valentine’s Day gift.

    Thank you!

    Weighted Companion Cube Plushie Sewing Pattern…

    So I got myself the Orange Box from Steam yesterday, which means that I bought one of the most original and fun Games of the last years: Portal.
    Portal has two noteworthy characters: GLaDOS, the main antagonist and the Weighted Companion Cube, the side…

    I’m pretty good at sewing, and I made myself one, but all my friends wanted one too, so I thought I might sell them. If you want one, send me an e-mail at endospore.inc(at)gmail.com with how much you’d be willing to pay, and if I get a good enough response I might just start selling them

    I thought you brought this plushie. It looks interesting. I haven’t made the papercraft version let alone try sewing. Give this one try.

    Hey Dove I don’t think you are entitled to sell the plush weighted companion cube unless you made the parts templates and own the intellectual rights. Give credit to Kidiron though.

    Sorry I forgot to ask.
    What do you use for the stuffing? Cube cushions are hard to find.

    Silly ducks. I have some sewing experience and pattern making experience and this would be my advice, though I did not make this pattern, so I am just making up directions. Also, I haven’t tried it yet, but I like everyone else, have a boyfriend who needs a valentines present.

    Step 1: Cut out pink heart with about 1/4″ extra all the way around. More if your fabric seems to need a greater seam allowance (frays, etc.)

    Step 2: Fold the 1/4″ under the heart, with the right side out, sew on top of gray circle with pink thread. (may need to cut slits in 1/4″ allowance in places such as the round tops of the heart and the v in the middle on top of the heart)

    Step 3: Cut out circle (around heart) with extra 1/4″ allowance.

    Step 4: Fold 1/4″ edge of circle under and sew on top of darker gray square. (Cut out the square again with… probably 1/2″ extra fabric around the edge, but 1/4 will do.)

    Make 6 of these.

    Step 5: Sew together 6 sides into cube. Put right sides together and sew with 1/2″ or 1/4″ seam allowance on the wrong side. Either sew the 6 into a cross-like shape (3 wide, 4 long) like in the paper pattern for a cube) or sew 4 to make a ring, then add the top and bottom. Finished cube should be inside out, and leave a 2″ to 4″ opening in one side to turn cube right side out.

    Step 6: Cut out corner and tab pattern out of light gray, fussy fabric – again with 1/4″+ seam allowance. (The pattern that looks like it is only 3/4 there, and the little rectangle below) Sew sides of right angle (where the missing piece would be) together to make a cone shape. Fold under edge and sew on to corners of cube. You could even stuff a little between the cube and the corner piece to make it stand out extra. Sew tabs on the same way as everything else.

    Stuff cube and sew up opening

    Oh, and before stuffing and sewing up, or maybe after, whatever you prefer, take pink embroidery thread (or a zig-zag stitch) to add the lines.
