meet chonky chicken, february's pattern reward! while working on the veggie (and fruit) hats, i decided... he needed a chef's hat, too! and it fits him so perfectly~ so this egg shaped friend is now officially a chef in my mind!!

here was the last wreath mane i made for the instructions for the lion cub pattern, releasing on january 31! the heart frame has two different pieces of wire. using a different fabric on each piece makes a neat effect! and of course the heart shape isn't just good for valentines day, but also showing off your love for a fandom 👀

Here's the first mane for my scar/kovu colored lion cub! It's never too early for halloween!! And I have an absolute ton of halloween themed cotton prints laying around, so it's a great way to use them up 🤣
One more fandom oriented mane coming up for him, and then onto instructions work for me!
Have a great day!
Happy friday! I finished up a new fella for my lion cub pride today~ scar and kovu were always my favorites so I had to make a lion inspired by their colors!
I'll be making him a couple manes on Monday, and then working on the instructions for the pattern the rest of next week!
Have a great weekend!
Hey all, hope you've had a wonderful week! I made a 2nd lion cub to further work on the pattern, this time a lioness! So our first lion cub has a girl to impress with his beautiful mane now!
I'll be making 1 more for the instructions photos before moving onto the chonky chicken for february!
Have a great weekend!
And the winner is...
Chonky chicken with vegetable hats! 🐔🥕
Thank you for voting!
Hey all, happy new year!
Reminder to vote in the february pattern poll if you're able, which ends at midnight tonight! Currently chonky chicken, dino nuggie stego, smores seal, and cats with hats are very close together!

Hey all! I got great news yesterday that the house sellers have accepted our final offer after repair concessions. We're moving on December 17th to virginia! It'll be a big, but welcome change from florida 😂
I'm very thankful I happened to schedule December off! This means January won't be so tough for me to get things out on time.
Regardless I've been working ahead on the lion cub pattern for January, and here's the first look! Very much in the draft stage still :) which means he'll...

hey all! sorry for the quietness over the last 2 weeks.. life has been crazy! more on that below if you care to read!
i've been hard at work on the big cat instructions & pattern which comes out on saturday! this has been a big one, with the PDF sitting at 131 pages right now, and i still have some video editing to do 😳 i hope you all are looking forward to it!

Here's the last big cat I'm making - a rainbow leopard! The eye design is a generic one that will be included with this pattern, that doesn't have the fluffy edges on the applique and an oval eye shine instead of a snowflake. Also with multi colored beans!
I'm going on a short vacation until Sunday. Next week I'll be taking photos of this fella and the cougar, and then working on the instructions for the pattern!
hey everyone, hope you're all doing OK - it's been a very stressful and depressing week for many, myself included. I hope this guy can bring you a little moment of joy today!
here's the 2nd floppy big cat i made this week with november's pattern reward, a cougar! he's made from shannon minky as an example of what the pattern looks like in this material and for the instructions photos. he has safety eyes instead of embroidered, a color blocked muzzle, and a bit shorter tail than the snow le...

Here she is.. november's pattern reward!
I've decided that I'll be marketing this one as "floppy big cat", since the pattern can be used for many different kinds! The back legs can be posed in several different positions and paw pads are puffy mochi 🤏
As noted in the pattern poll, I won't be providing instructions on how to do spots with applique/embroidery/other methods, and using fabric with a print is highly recommended! Trust me.. you don't wanna do that anyway! 😂
Of course...
gingerbread ditto is ready to help you welcome in the holidays! he's still one of my favorite designs i've ever done, and getting to make gingerbread cookies for the photos i need to take doesn't help either 😉

Hey all! I've been hard at work on the snow leopard pattern for November! Here's a lil sneak peek for you 👀 i hope to post the full plush early next week!
2024-10-24 19:38:22 +0000 UTC View Post
I ended up making 1 more bird to further test the pattern! I got a suggestion for a white raven pattern previously and I thought my crow pattern would be close enough!
This pattern was a little tough in luxe cuddle due to the size but it's doable with some patience!
I'll be working on instructions for this pattern for the rest of the month and starting the leopard pattern for November next week!
And the winner is...
Lion cub!
Thank you all for voting! He won't be seen for a while but I hope you look forward to him!🤗
