Just finished another custom order! This bunny is made out of fabric that is 100% recycled! I'm super happy with how this one came out. The sewn on fleece eyes are sometimes a bit of a challenge to place. This little one will be on its way to its new home soon!

I'm still recovering from the weekend, but I was at GeekFest West! (If you know you know, do not recommend!) But I had a wonderful time being able to collaborate with .works, who makes amazing needle felt creations such as kirbies and frogs, and .art, who draws amazing art including hilarious labubu stickers and prints!

I was able to raffle off two handmade giant kirbies, with needle felted faces courtesy of wyrm.works. I made lots of new friends and look forward to collaborating with them in the future!

Despite the rough weekend, Kirby Plinko was a hit, paying for our booth fee all on its own! (This crowd definitely had a gambling problem!)

I'm all set up at the UW Makers Fair! Come play Chicken Plinko and win prizes :D

Happy Earth Day! Let me introduce you to the FIRST giant rat handmade by me using 100% Recycled Fabric made from post-consumer water bottles! 💚🌎♻️

I've been planning to make the switch for a few years now, but the mass closure of Joann's stores has finally pushed me to start using recycled fleece, reusing and removing plastic from our dumps to create plush critters!

If you're a fellow plushie maker (or use fleece for blankets, clothing, etc), I highly recommend the recycled Polartec Fleece from MillYardage. It's amazing quality I'm excited to be using more eco-friendly fabric!

I'll still be phasing out my hoarde of regular fleece, but I'll be using 100% recycled fabrics once I finish using up my current stash!

New plushie announcement!

I was inspired by the chicken friends in my two most recent favorite games, Legend of Zelda (botw and totk!) and Stardew Valley and also inspired by the popular round chicken crochet pattern!

I'm super happy with how simple, yet perfect the design turned out. I'm thinking I might have to polish it up and share this one down the line because of how beginner friendly that pattern would be!

These little friends will be available in multiple colors at Oddmall in Monroe, WA this weekend!!
