  • Finished the bodysuit mockup. It’s mostly perfect as is, only edits that can be done when cutting the fur is adding extra seam allowance around the hip area & using a slightly longer zipper. I’ll add in sleeves once I get more calico. Meanwhile, I need a break from this project.

  • My fur order from @Bartfeld arrived!

  • My American friend is having a baby and since I had some scrap fabrics from previous projects and there was space in the postage box, I made up some cute bibs as a surprise. These are super simple, just sew some scraps together, then layer everything, cut the bib, and sew.

  • Made up 2 baby sleep sacks/swaddles for my american friend. It was a very cute pattern (The Pod Swaddler from While They Sleep Design on Etsy), that I only made 1 modification to to allow for a double blanket without raw seam edges left inside.

Oh noes! #FursuitTutorials was excellent in helping me understand what went wrong (knee pads upside down and too small, wrong shaped pads, overstuffing). So I made up some new pads which already look so much better.

  • I’ve been updating K’rahmyteh’s reference sheet. Haven’t painted for so long that I thought I couldn’t until I remembered I needed a colour palette…

  • Buttons arrived so finished up the cactus shirt. Here is my partner being a cactus 🌵
