Exploding Chest Zombie Plushie

We all love Zombies. We all love to imagine yanking the guts out of zombies. Now you can!

I made this zombie plushie (her name is Brigitta) for a friend for her birthday. I figured Brigitta needed a lil' zombie pet, so I painted a plaster cat figurine to be Brigitta's friend in a zombie world. The cat's name is Zach Braff, obviously.

Brigitta's eye was blown off by a pesky human during the early days of the zombie apocalypse. Poor Brigitta.

Brigitta is made of cuddly flannel. She has yarn hair, painted and embroidered features, felt organs, a velcro-enclosed body, and button joints.

Although I began the project taking step-by-step photos, I changed my original plans and decided to make Brigitta's chest cavity accessible and dismantled the doll after construction in order to add her organs and stuff. I hope these photos inspire you to make Brigitta and Zach Braff some new friends.
