Big Custom Order

I've just finished a big custom order...so happy with how they came out...

More Owls

I finished the other two owls...they make a funny trio...

A Very Scowly Owl

I've been tearing my hair out trying to get something going for the Plush You show...trying to keep it reasonably priced and all that, which has proved to be frustrating right now for some reason. I don't like to rein in my crazy ideas, but last night I finally came up with a little owl that I am really happy with. In person, he site in the palm of your hand and is so SOFT and so scowly that he's pretty darn irresistible, if I may say so!

Tonight I'm working on a yellow brother for him...

MORRTEN...Morrt's green brother

Well, I decided I needed to make a replacement for Morrt, who was lost in US MAIL on his way to the Stitch Wars Show in Florida at Bird & Bear Gallery. I'm really still hoping against hope that he'll still make it there before the 18th, but assuming he will not, I went ahead and made a green version, his brother, Morrten...

Billy The Pink Monkey

I found some really super soft pink fur with brown tips, and it called out to be a monkey...not sure why he's called Billy.He's super floppy and feels sooo nice!

One for the Road

I'll be sending Morrt off to the Bear and Bird Gallery tomorrow to be in the Stitch Wars show there. We had a glass of bourbon together, and these are some parting shots:

Worrt all done

Finished my Worrt...maybe I'll call him Morrt,  He's a sweet little guy...though he's actually one of the biggest creatures I've ever made. He's very huggable...

WORRT!

I've been working on this guy for a while, he's my contribution to the Stitch Wars show. I've sewn a fur shell for him, and stuffed him solid with polyester stuffing that is half-needle felted. Then I covered the stuffing with wool roving and sculpted him by needling. He's got big glass taxidermy eyes, and his fingers and arms are all wired to bend and pose. So are his feelers.

Here are some in process pics:

Stitch Wars Show

I'm going to be in the Stitch Wars show in July at Bear & Bird Gallery in Florida. I'm really excited because it should be a fantastic show of Star Wars inspired stitchery...

Goldilocks and the Three Bears

Just had this idea and needed to do it asap!
