Finished mini quilt, in situ protecting the top of my record player. I’m not going to be winning any quilting competitions any time soon, but honestly I prefer the rough’n’ready style of quilting.

One glove done for K’rahmyteh. The silver swirls are conductive thread. Now to complete the other one and add the claws.
-
This has taken literal days to pattern and patterning isn’t completely finished yet! It’s the most complex thing I’ve made to date.

Finished the core of Miwak’s tail. It has a pool noodle running through the middle, the elastic provides stability lengthwise and around the segment connections. Belt attachment is going to be a challenge as it’s designed to sit on the butt.

Several days work later and I have this absolute unit of a tail. Need to smooth out the sculpt before patterning & sewing each individual segment, before it’s connected into a single unit.

Started work on Miwak’s bone tail. It’s going to look fantastic but I immediately see issues with putting on the minky sleeve. It’s also highly unlikely I’ll get this, plus paws and head, done by spring, when my maker will have an opening for the body suit…

Painted and sealed. I am so amazingly proud of these gums and paint tones. This is the first time I’ve sculpted gums with this level of detail that also had to avoid hiding teeth unnecessarily or hitting the upper jaw. Now to install all the hardware.
-
Almost finished another pre-made. I’m really happy with this pattern, it’s officially my go to now.

I am continuing on my quest to generate a ‘perfect’ bear paw pattern. We’ll see how this new pattern test goes. If it doesn’t meet my standards for a bear paw I think i’ll try modifying MissrarsCreatures 5-finger pattern.

A few hours later and I have a forehead section ready for mask attachment. The pet mesh prevents the fur sagging into the crest rig. The rolled edge creates a more natural looking finish whilst helping to hide the gap between the crest and hood. Also sewed the eyebrows into place along the unrolled edges…
