Title: Keiko the Orca and Starcatcher version 2.0
Post by: pinkkittywinks on February 17, 2016, 12:01:37 PM

Hi ponies,

Here are a couple of plushies that I have finished off, but not shared with you until now!  :blush:

Firstly here is Keiko :) he was a special commission for Ellie. I made Keiko from high quality, anti-pill polar fleece. I used a Simplicity Orca plush pattern, which I had to modify as the dorsal fin, pectoral fins and some of the skin markings were incorrect. Keiko measures 78cm long from nose to tail. He is so nice to cuddle and such a fun plush  ^.^

Pillow Buddy Star Catcher version 2.0: Commissioned by Amy. I made Starcatcher from a pattern of my own creation. She is made from high quality fleece, glitter velvet and faux fur. I have embroidered her eyes and symbols in place with both hand and machine embroidery.

These are both wonderfully done PKW!! I can see so much work was put into both. I really love Keikos little teeth and how you bedazzle starcatcher. I really hope I can commission you for a pillow buddy pony in the future  :D

Thank you both :)

Believe it or not I used the SMALL pattern for Keiko. The large pattern is 1 meter 75 long. A real baby Orca is around the 2 meter mark at birth!

I just love Keiko, it was really worth making the changes. He has such a sweet face and I think he reflects the real Keiko's personality.

Starcatcher has got to have sparkles ^.^ she would be Starcatcher with out glitter and jewels.

Love pkw xxx
