Found my Jlahaj to show any trans people who would rather sew with a free pattern than buy a stuffie from IKEA https://freesewing.org/designs/hi/

A denim stuffed shark on a wooden table. The body of the shark is dark blue denim, and the tummy is light blue. The eyes and gills are embroidered with gold jeans top-stitching thread, which has also been used to edge-stitch on the fins.

The same shark on its side. Now you can see the light blue belly better, and the mouth, which has teeth made of pocket lining. The part of the mouth that would be pink on an IKEA Blahaj is made of grey denim.

A different angle where the teeth are a bit more visible. This angle makes it look a bit like a beached whale.

Close-up of the face from the side. Better view of the embroidery, and you can now see that the eyes are a little piece of black denim with a white dot embroidered in them.
