Snorlax is a giant pokemon who sleeps and eats, he is in fact a key plot point in the early pokemon games as he blocks your path and you have to figure out how to wake him up. So he seemed like a good choice for something that's going to sit there blocking something.
I drew out Snorlax, cut out the individual pieces, then cut them out of the fabric. I sew the main body together and filled with rice.
Then I sewed the ears, arms, and feet and filled them with toy stuffing, and sewed them on to the body.
