Made one : http://i.imgur.com/Izoc2l.jpg !
I messed up the teeth a little bit but it was pretty tough (given it was my first attempt with a sewing machine).

Anyway, GREAT tutorial, it was very instructive and I'm really happy with the result, so thanks !

Very nice. I prefer your normal instructables but the video does make it easy to view quickly! Very simple to follow and nice out come. Well done, another great Instructable!

ps. I bought a domo-kun shirt just the other day, maybe it's fate? I'll have to make one then!

I reckon. Maybe you could add in a little mention about your latest video when you say "Now take all the pins out, put them safely away..."

I saw a domo kun gangsta hat. I laughed, and then pined because I have a large head and couldn't buy it.

Lovely! The teeth looked a tad tedious though. Have you thought about fabric glue? Also, they have self adhesive felt sheets (about 4 times as expensive), but they eliminate complex sewing of small parts.

It takes a bit of time but i think its worth it because it looks better, i also find that gluing layers together either makes the details crunchy/stiff, and bonding agents (the iron-on glue i find works best) is quick but the results aren't as hardwearing as sewing them on :)
