Power Owlets

Check out these Oscillating Owlets made by the fabulous testers who gave the pattern a trial run last month!

Rikke made a pair of pretty, neutral Owlets. I like their subtle cuteness!

And after testing the pattern as written, Jennifer made a whole menagerie of Owlets hanging out on a tree of her own design. Wow!

Apparently she’s added even more Owlets to the tree since she sent me that photo.

Jennifer’s project was particularly interesting to me because my original concept for the pattern somewhat resembled what she ended up with. Oscillating or not, they sure are cute!

Thank you to Rikke, Jennifer, and Jessica for the testing help!

Tiny Chicken

SHHH Don’t anyone tell her what happened to that tiny egg she laid a few months ago…

~Plu~ suggested a tiny chicken in the comments back in July, so another free pattern is coming you way, ~Plu~! (I don’t think you claimed the first one that you got, come to think of it…)

Big Mouth O’ Fluff

Update: I can’t believe it, but someone pretty much guessed spot-on in the comments! It’s going to be a factory with tiny stuff coming out on a conveyor belt.

Bet you can’t guess what this guy is going to be! (No really—I’m pretty certain you’ll never guess. But you can try anyway!)

It’s something I’m making for the upcoming Luv-able and Hug-able plush show at gallery hanahou. I’ll reveal more as it comes along!

Mossy Things for Plush You

Wanna see what I made for Plush You this year? It’s a Mossy Rock, a Mossy Log, and Mossy Ground!

mossyground

These three will be available at this year’s Plush You show, which opens October 9th at Schmancy in Seattle. (I think they’ll be available online too!)

I really liked how they turned out (even strange little ground guy), but my absolute favorite thing about this project were the tags that I made for them.

I had this idea in my head of what I wanted the tags to look like, and then I made them and they turned out just how I wanted! I made them using Illustrator, which is pretty much my favorite thing now.
