Made this a few months ago for my next door neighbor's 2nd birthday. Apparently he is a huge fan of Sprout TV's bedtime star, yet there is no stuffed star that is marketed.

Drew a huge circle on some butcher paper using a string and a pencil, and made a star pattern from it. I used fleece, safety eyes, and appliqued red felt on. The stars are appliques that I purchased and sewed on. The hat is separate, made from my too-plentiful flannel stash. I originally was going to use these cute little star buttons, but decided that would be both a choking hazard as well as not very huggable. I hear this guy was a hit :)
Awesome! Score one for making your own pattern, too!
