Cutethulus 💜🐙

This week I've been sleeping a lot after work but I managed to get the faces on this set of purple cthulu that I had started last fall. I also pinned the fabric for the wings. The wings take a while because, like the little mouths on these pals, I hand stitch the edges.

I have other ideas for new plush patterns, but I should finish some things that I've already started, right?

I got so much work done yesterday! I even got to start the bows for Willow and Aster too! Once I finish the sequin work, I can sew the bows together, take picture and add them to my shop tomorrow!

I finished the stitch work on both Juniper and Aster yesterday. I also got their paws stitched on. I'm on track for having them in my Tuesday shop update!

I have all of the individual body parts of Juniper and Aster together. I even started some of the stitch work on Juniper. I hope to have these two all sewn together by the end of the day today. Then I can start working on their bows! My goal is to have these two finished for my shop update on Tuesday.

I couldn't decide between making a light blue or an light orchid coloured bunny. So I decided to make both. They have names too! The blue bunny is Juniper, and the orchid bunny is Aster!

I made some major adjustments to this new bunny pattern prototype. I have a few more tweaks to make in the third, and hopefully, final prototype in wool. I wired the ears so they can be posed too.

The wings are finished and I loved on to the feet last night. I am so ready to work on the new bunny pattern that I've been planning. So. Ready.

The thighs are sewn on. The heads are attached. The wing embroidery has been started. I need to have the four done by tomorrow so I can shoot and process the photos. Then build the item listing for adding to my shop. OH! And I need to construct thier bows and decorations!

I got the beaks and bills created and attached to the heads. Then I got all the bodies together. My orders of wool felt and sequins came early (YAY!) so I can also start planning bows and decorations for each.

With this third and final prototype, the chick pattern is a go! The chicka i offer in my shop will have some embroidered elements on them. Now I can start making a few of them for my online shop!

The first spring chickie prototype has been completed! There are lots of little tweaks that I will make in the second prototype today.

My brain is smooshy right now. I have so many things to do. And they all need to be done by me, at the same time. But at least I have the spring chickie prototype pattern ready to test.

I save and stash all kinds of materials and supplies for my artwork. These are my two current felt scrap boxes.

I worked on some faces and a lot of tentacle-like appendages for the top of this second cube-headed doll.

I'm giving the cube-headed doll design a second go. There are technique issues I want to better sort out. Along with the the steps required in a more ordered sequence. The pattern needed some slight alterations. I also want to play with sequins again.
