This is actually an explanation of a project that I did about a week ago.
I used a pattern by the fabulous Alan Dart which he has been distributing for free that you can find at this link : http://img.thesun.co.uk/multimedia/archive/00686/SKM49_2__proj_sackb_686954a.pdf
I've actually made two of these toys, one in white, and one in purple. While this project recommends using a zipper for the middle, I made the purple sackboy body with yarn to create a corseted look after stitching the sides of the body together.
This pattern is actually a bit more complicated than I'm used to, but it's more time consuming than difficult. Personally, I found putting the toy together the most fun. :) You can customize this toy pretty much however you like. It allows for a lot of creativity, and I'm planning on designing some clothing and hairstyles for them. :)
Here are some pictures of the purple sackboy that I made for a friend of mine. And if you're wondering, that's me in the picture with him.
