I SCRIPTED I WONT BRING ANY TRAUMA FROM MY ZOMBI APOCALYPSE DR AND I DONT REMEMBER MUCH OF WHAT HAPPENED AS IN DEATHS AND G8RE STOP SAYING THAT YOU CANT "ERASE" TRAUMA.

USE HIGH QUALITY YARN. Red heart works in a pinch but if you can get something slightly pricey-er I promise it pays for itself in the long run.

S T R A I G T E N IT!!! ESPECIALLY if you are using cheap yarn. It will mat and tangle way quicker if the yarn isn't straightened.

If you've already made your tail (using a tiktok tutorial where you tie strands onto the base), then run a straightener or iron over it a few times until it's smooth. Also adds a nice sheen to the fluff.

If you're using the wefts and base method then sew them on don't tie them.

Use a bead for the top attachment. Metal rings tend to slip open and lose strands and it is incredibly annoying. one of those clips with a solid ring works too in a pinch.

Use a slicker brush to brush the fibers, not a deshedding tool

this one I stole from tiktok: you can attach tails to a belt loop even without a clip. Safety pins can clip them on if they're light enough, you can use a paperclip if you slide the tail in on one end and slide it through your belt loop on the other (like a keychain ring). Rubber bands work too bc you can tie them on by folding it around the tail and then over the belt loop

You can make yarn tails in unnatural colors, and ones that aren't your theriotype. Tails are just for fun, as much as they are gear. My favorite yarn tail is rainbow after all and I love that thing to death.

All I've ever wanted since I was a wee dibbun was a complete map of the world of Redwall. So I made one :D

I took photos of all of the maps at the start of every book, photoshopped them into their approximate sizes and positions. Then filled in any blanks in the map by making it look more or less like fantasy England. And then skimmed through every book making sure I missed as few details as possible.

Once it was all done I had it printed onto some fabric and made a wall hanging :D

This took FOREVER. I started the project years ago and eventually got around to finishing it like, a month ago? Anyway I am very pleased with the outcome.

And here is the high res files for anyone looking to zoom in on all of the tiny details, or have their own map printed :D Go live out your Redwall dreams like I have!

Methuselah: you'd better not be flirting with Matthias, we've got work to do and I can't have him distracted by his crazy huge crush on you.

Cornflower, literally just standing there doing her job: M'kay

Basil Stag Hare: did you see? Matthias, did you see? The way she looked at you? I think that Cornflower chick likes you! You should ask her out!

YES
