  • Finished K’rahmyteh’s claws. These are super comfy and the dexterity is great despite the claws.

  • Patterning up Miwak’s head. I took the forehead rest out to get a closer match to my tiny head dimensions on the Edhead. I also patterned up their footpaw off camera. All ready for fur purchasing now. 😊

  • And Miwak’s feet are complete! They have shoes installed inside and they are so comfy to jump around in.

  • Sewing the cuticles over the claws. It’s a bit more fiddly work but compared to a bare claw, looks far more professional and realistic.

  • Whenever you create, modify, or adapt a pattern it’s always a good idea to create a mock-up first. I’m adapting the principals of the FurSmoothie pattern to create a more bear-like foot paw with 5 toes.

  • Jackalope feetpaws made using #FurSmoothie’s pattern. They have shoes inside, and some extra squish under the soles as the shoes are just basic canvas slip-ons. I am quite impressed with this pattern, totally changed my mind about gluing as opposed to carving foam. Might smooth out the hock hump but otherwise ready to fur.

  • It is becoming increasingly apparent that this is not a tail I ever wish to remake. First pic is the pieces for the first 2 segments, took about 2 hours to extract. Finally, 3 days and multiple cuttings sessions later, I present the rolls of pattern. 😵‍💫

  • Sewing Tip! When sewing spandex areas that will be excessively stretched, remember to also stretch the material when sewing to maximise the impact of the stretch stitch.

  • Little Link is all done. I think I might get him framed in a circular frame, if I can find one.

  • So I procrastinated just a little bit too hard over the week. Will finish this little sprite off over the next few days.
