Hello Bluesky!
My goal: to document myjourney in art! Right now that mostly means plush making! but I might post a drawing or two.
Hope y’all enjoy <3

Here he is! Dec 1-March 1, the teddy bear dragon is done! He is some weird amalgamation of teddiursa ursaring and Dragonite. I love him so much

(Initial pattern based off @makeshiftwingsplush.com)
As a rough draft I think it’s good. Heads a bit big, eyes too small, legs too short, etc etc

But I’ve been working on this for almost 6 months!!! 😭 😭 I’m so over it

This is good enough!!!!

Does anyone know why my white Minky turned pink during embroidering? And how to prevent that???

Fun fact: if you're buying from a creator on etsy, you can reduce their etsy selling fees from 6.5% to 2.5% by ordering via 'shopname.etsy.com' instead of 'etsy.com/shopname' or searching from the main site. It costs you the same but the creator makes more

Found this progress video of venasaur from a few years back! #pokemon

Tadaa! Here he is!!! No comparison photos since he was stuffed at thanksgiving! Hope the kids love him! Thanks #makeshiftwings for the pattern!

The wings are bigger, to be more like a blanket. The tail is supposed to look like a pika tail but no good angles (I wasnt the photographer lol) #plushart

So this last project I was in rush. Not many progress pics. But I got him done by thanksgiving! Thank you fam for letting me stuff him during the get together lol

Anyways this is was from a couple years ago. I lost the actual image so here’s the video instead lol #ninetales #pokemonart

I’m finding I’m having a hard time practicing traditional art. My drawing abilities are subpar (color/shading almost nonexistent) but ultimately at a level that’s reliable for my current purposes (plush making).

So how much do you have to alter a premade pattern before you have to stop crediting? Like if I modify everything (beyond sizing) but leave the torso shape the same then it’s still their pattern?

New to the textile world so I don’t really know all the rules lol

For my current project: a pikachu Dragonite (makeshiftwings again!)

First time going to work with luxe cuddle in prep for my next dragon.

This guy is going to have enlarged wings and an extended tail. Gotta practice alterations before my new ultimate goal lol

Ah do I love and hate thee? May I count the ways? HAhhh this boi… He took so longggf but that corkscrew tail was not intended. Nor was wing texture. You live and learn I guess.

This all four of my guys together! Last family photo before flareonite left!

This is my fourth guy, Umbreonite! This pattern by makeshiftwings is so well done!! He was probably the easiest one I’ve made so far! No hiccups at all! And he feels so nice to hold <3

This is my third plush made from actual Minky! I love pokefusion so this is Flareonite. This is a combo made from two different sewdesune patterns. But the head turned out way too large lol??? He’s currently living his best life in a school. Apparently he’s been adopted lol

This was my second plush! Making him was my main goal. He’s the first I made using a sewing machine! Umm all his limbs are not fully attached because I’m horrible at ladder stitching lol (Pattern by sewdesune

This was the first plush I made—completely hand sewn. I did sew the face and tail on backwards. (Pattern by cirquelcuriosities
