animating teddies

I've decided to make my own teddys for characters in my animation. I'm not great at sewing and won't be using a pattern so I want to keep them quite simple. I want a child-like, cute feel to them, as if a child could make them so my limited needle skills will actually help in this respect. Heres some Easter soft toys I found which are as simple as they get-just two pieces of fabric sewn together. I think it's the added details like stiching and floral patterns in places which make them look so adorable. I will try to make something similar to these, though more practical for moving them around a set and making them stand up etc.

I also dug out all my old soft toys to see if i could figure out how they're made. I can pretty much copy the patterns in a similar way, the only problem is the legs as most soft toys do not stand up.
