#jumping spider

I keep seeing this picture and similar ones and it keeps giving me thoughts. Yeah I do agree with the message ! And these animals are hated by many peoole !! But let's be honest. These are still fairly conventionally cute. They're big eyed fluffy affectionate pretty intelligent mammals and birds. So today, I'm offering y'all my own version.

look at her!! she is so cute!!! i want to cry!!!!

Indigo the jumping spider is finally complete, just in time for Halloween! this cutie took me several months to complete, 100% by hand because sewing machines hate me ಥ‿ಥ

he has handpaws, armsleeves, four mini-legs, a big spider butt/tail, and three pairs of follow-me eyes (one for seeing, two for show). the head, sleeves, and paws are all fully-lined with scuba knit.

original reference sheet under the cut:

We've never had a spider this orange before. I know we keep saying it, but she's just soooo orange! Plus her chelicerae are so purple. She's just perfect 🥹
