Just finished my Innuk Plushie last night. I used the  Northsound plushie pattern to make him, but I attached all his arms legs taili and head rather than using joints. It took a fair bit longer, but none of the hassle of finding hardware.

I had a couple sets of epoxy eye blanks sitting around, and painted them up for him. (don't worry, those were the spoiled ones that I couldn't use anyway.)
