Soft City ATTACKED!

Yes, the utopia that is the Soft City has its mishaps. A felt monster descended upon our fair City… leaving many unstuffed buildings and thread fray behind. But the Softies are banding together to get the City make to his former glory.
MONSTER!!!

It’s a Soft New York City

The plushtastic Soft City founders took part in a larger project, by Flux Factory,where over 70 artists contributed their own miniature versions of buildings in New York City. Resulting in a massive miniature city! Of course ours were plush but the other artists choose harder materials. Here are a few of the cozy buildings we made.

The Soft City was a small part of the massive-mind-boggling art thang that is nuit blanche. We gave away many magnets and were mentioned in the Globe and Mail.

Thanks to our crack team of architects, planners and children we now have a permanent soft fair as part of the city. Apparently a Blyth doll named Magnolia also visited.
