Starting a (hopefully) quick AJ commission š
Iām using the smug bedroom eyes with my laying pattern. I wanted a chance to fuss with my head pattern again anyway, lol.
Cadence is on hold until after AJ. Her hair is patterned I just need to format it for printing. Iāll release the printable files with it, and figure out how to get it up on spoonflower.
Im not sure how much tim...

Iām also releasing a tutorial for doing floating embroidery appliquĆ© (finally)! I figure most of you guys know how but Iāve never released a tutorial for it. Iād like to go back and include it with big mac etc and the files with it.
Iām also going to release files for printing for her hair! I think only for you guys, for now. $10 will get her pattern, hair prints and all embroide...

So the satin eyes didnāt turn out right (they got wrinkles) so Iām re doing her eyes with embroidery. But I like how her hair turned out!

Few pics for the final. Hereās the post on Twitter https://twitter.com/mofumofumoth/status/1511770587072323586?s=21
Iām posting some more plushies in the next few days. I have probably 15 or so old plushies that I need to post. š

Yay so happy sheās done! Iāll take nice photos tomorrow. I have 2 life size ponies coming up next, though I might take a simple 14ā mare commission before I start. I think I wanna test out the head an extra time and try out some neat things I have planned with sublimation. Email me if you are interested in that! MyLittleWaifuplushies@gmail.com

Got some fur in for a life size Dash, and some for a Twilight too. Iām ordering another yellow since the one I got was too pale. The colors in the pic arenāt super accurate, but itās just fun to see colorful project materials. āŗļø

Managed to get the Scootaloo fur pretty close to what I wanted! Just a tad pinker and darker than Raspberry (bottom). Crossing my fingers the pattern works out cuz I donāt have extra fur (I dyed only the pattern pieces)
I made a bath of diluted acrylic paint, then very barely wrang them out and dried with a blow dryer while intermittently brushing it. The original color was a hot pink, ...

Thinking about releasing an updated mare laying pattern! My old beanie laying pattern is really outdated and it would be easy for me to add a laying version. (Not exactly like Derpy but Iād probably use the limb shapes)
Also started on an adult Scootaloo! Iām attempting to paint-dye some fur hair. It worked on the swatch, but weāll see how it goes on the fin...

After much fussing with my sublimation printer I finally got the ink to penetrate deep enough into the fibers! It's almost at the base, which is good enough for me. There's barely any white showing, even at the hair points! Still a lot of experimenting left to do with the sublimation. I'll share more in detail soon.

Wow a finished pony, itās a miracle! Sheās getting some socks and a collar, so Iām not completely done with her, but enough to take some nice pictures. Iāll edit them later today.
Next project is getting my sublimation printer working to make hair for a dash beanie!

I keep thinking Iām almost done, but then I need to keep making big changes. š
I need to redo her front mane, side mane, and head. Tail and body needs minor adjustments.
Her wing pattern is new, and should be able to be machine sewn into the plush now. Her ears are machine sewn also, but they still need tweaking to be sewn in properly.
She canāt stand on her own either⦠š...

I bought an Epson ET-2803 printer to make some custom printed minky! Plushiluv had some really nice results and Iām really excited to give it a try! Iāve yet to buy the sublimation paper/ink, need to read around a bit more for the best brand etc. My friend gave me a heat press so Iām most of the way there.
Iāll let you guys know the results once I get it going!! āŗļø

I worked so hard on getting these pesky things just right. I used a combo of fusible thin batting (to make the inner ear stiff) and thin sew-in batting to give the back of the ear a little padding. Iām still working on trying to get them to machine sew into my head pattern easily. My previous ears used glue, plastic and a bunch of hand sewing, and honestly didnāt even look this nice lol. So...

Have really stiff minky that doesnāt feel soft at all? Use a steamer!!! I tried an iron first (and brushing up the nap) but it just made the minky even more flat and barely any softer. Then I remembered I bought a garment steamer for wig styling, and it was just the trick!
Hereās what I did:
1. Lay the minky flat on an ironing board. If itās wrinkly you may want to iron it fi...

Trying to be more active, I donāt really use Facebook much anymore. Slowly re-branding, I finally changed my DA username! (Itās been buttercupbabyppg since I was 13 lol)
Iām going to try to make a basic site with gallery/store/FAQ soonish. Etsy is less than ideal. Itās good for my patterns and embroidery files, but Iād rather not use it to sell plush.
Still working on emb...

If you were curious of my floating embroidery method, I cut out the pieces, embroider an outline, then use 505 to position, pin solvy on top. Embroider. I like to use it for big pieces because it reduces waste of fabric/stabilizer/time. The stabilizer is actually a very heavy weight tear away (for hats) It doesnāt tear too great but it stitches nicely without being too heavy.
Oh. And t...

Getting really close to finishing her up now! Been a long time in the making, so Iām really glad I have the time. Her hair and ears are only pinned. I still need to make her wings but sheās really close now!

Finally, I'm a full time plush maker again! I'm still technically employed but there's pretty much no work for me to do until business picks up again, so I opted to stay home. Honestly I'm thrilled to get a chance to get back into plush work for a while. I just finished the Them's Fightin Herds plushies last night and will be taking pictures of them today!
I updated my patreon tiers, now ...

So my work is still open, but things are so slow that my boss doesnāt mind if I sew at work! So the TFH are very close to done now! We are getting so little business though I think itās a matter of time until we close. But for now, I can basically do my plush work and still get a pay check so win-win!

So it looks Iike Iāll likely be unemployed for a while, due to the coronavirus, so back to plushies!! Iām not sure if my job situation yet, but Iāll likely find out tomorrow.
I plan to get past due rewards out and re-enstate the license tier at a lower price, without new patterns included. Going to be poor as heck for a while but at least my roommates are still employed at the mome...

Iāll continue posting my projects and WIPs however all content will be public, this 1$ tier will basically be a tip jar, though Iāll post little goodies and coupons for my 1$ patrons every so often. :) I do hope all who are currently patrons...

Hey ya'll. So long story short, I got a new 9-5 job and it's been really tough to squeeze in plush work into my schedule. My patreon is on hold for the moment as I catch up with past rewards. I promise they are coming though, just hang in there! I'm also retiring beanie kits, so if any of my patrons are interested in offering them go for it! I'd be happy to give you the files and guidelin...

It also includes my basic plush sewing tutorial. :) Hair and embroidery files for my new beanie patterns are compatible, just stuff like clothing may need to be adjusted.
