#custom plush

Mio next to Mina. I added some fur to his neck ruff to match the shape of hers more. His mirrors the shape of hers. This is the first time I've put them side by side!

She did *not* want to look at the camera xD (also she is currently in a weird phase of regrowing her fur after a reset)

Moth plush plans!!

this is the first pattern I’m making completely on my own, so I’m hoping she will turn out well, but I’ve practiced enough I feel confident I can make it work

I’ve never been able to find a moth plush I could really bond with, even if I liked how they looked they didn’t have a texture I was drawn to, were to round for me to effectively have around with me, or were to stiff

So I’m making the realistic, soft, and floppy moth of my dreams. She will have a variety of textures and is based off the species of moth that got me into entomology (just with some creative liberty and less detail to make sure I don’t lose my mind making her)

she has no name yet, so feel free to recommend some! It will be a bit till shes done since I still have to draw out her pattern then put her together. I just know I’m gonna get real tired of sewing legs so that will probably slow it down lol

This is So. Much. Work!

But look at the beans! I absolutely love them.

If anyone is wondering, I made hot glue beans, painted and sealed them, and then super glued them onto some high quality felt. You want thick felt so the thread doesn't rip through it when you sew it down. Then, I cut out around them, leaving a seam allowance and sewed them in place.

Here is a WIP photo:

I think he wants to touch the fire…
