  • I’ve discovered a simpler way to join binding. Fold the outside end in at an angle, the underneath piece you cut straight and just tuck the edge that could be seen under. When the binding is all finished, it looks just like a proper bias join edge.

  • We’re on to the rind now. I’m thinking to replace 2 of the colours in the rind with something more orangey to really make the blood orange middle pop, but I’ll have to see.

  • I’ve finally gotten around to making up my turntable cover. Got to use the quilters pad and mini iron I got earlier this year for my birthday, they’re really neat!

  • 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.

  • This is the blood orange version of the slice cross stitch. This has already been a few days work and already looks so good!

  • 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.

  • Found this rainbow fabric so had to make some personal candy floss paws in celebration of getting covid vaccinated.

  • 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…

  • Another set of pre-made paws for practice. These are a slight pattern modification for the option of larger finger pads.

  • Finished another premade paws using my new 5-finger pattern. These are super comfy for small hands.
