A little while back I got a commission to make teddy bears who could blend into an office of IT workers. And one bear dressed for a generic upscale office job. I also got a commission (a totally separate one) to make a giant pickle. The point being that in the arena of custom plush-making, […]

the adventures of UrK & Wrbbl
A few weeks ago I made some very fuzzy, very neolithic (in the stereotypical and not at all historically accurate sense) costumes for a LoadingReadyRun video about some cavemen who are ahead of their time. Besides covering our entire living room in soft, clingy, static-y fuzz, it also left me with some small-but-too-large-to-throw-away faux fur […]

bunny plush with zippered pocket
This was one of those weeks where the project I’d intended to write a tutorial for just wasn’t working out.

How many felt shapes did I […]

bonus post – Podipus plushies and how to get one
Leelee Scaldaferri, one of the talented artists behind Extra Credits, once drew an adorable little octopus into her webcomic, NameGame. The adorably oozing creature was named Podipus, and though he sometimes just sits around looking cute, he’s also been known to show superhero aspirations and political savvy.

Fblthp plush
A little while ago I was asked to make a Fblthp plush, and I happily agreed. Thankfully, the request came via email, so neither of us had to worry about saying the name out loud, though I did experience difficulty while actually making the plushie and trying to answer my fiancé’s question of “So, what […]
