Plushie Swap - All done! Remember to leave feedback!

[Skeen]

Skeen I'm so jealous of your embroidery skills!

Don't be, it's done on a machine.    I haven't the first clue how to do it by hand - nor the patience!  I am having the WORST time trying to sew the stripes into her hair.  Her mane is done now and on, but her tail refuses to cooperate.  Opposing curves, how I hate you!

Katgyrl - it's from dolphinwing on etsy.  Altered a bit, but it's her pattern.  This is the maybe 4th pony I've done/am doing from it, and it goes together beautifully but tends to leave the legs splayed out wide after stuffing, so I fiddled with it a little bit.    I especially like this pattern because I don't have to sew the head on the body inside out, and it always leaves you with a nice pointy nose!

I'm also loving that plushie.  I really wish I had an embroidery machine.  Oh well, maybe one day.  Thanks for sharing.  And congrats to all who're done or almost done their plushies.

Hehe, I should invest in getting one eventually. Would you mind me asking what type of machine you have?

Maddie, it's a Brother SE400, and I LOVE it!    My husband refused to pay full price for one (as he does with practically everything) so he shopped around and got a really good deal on a brand new one on ebay.  I think they just came out with a 425 model but I don't know the difference.

Just wanted to share the little plushie/softie I made for a friend for Christmas. Sorry the pic is sideways.

She likes cats and purple. I also made the cat a tiny little Christmas cat doll, that's green with a pointsetta bow, but that was after I took the pic and I haven't taken the time to upload a new pic. I think I put the eyes on a little too wide, but otherwise I'm pleased with how she turned out. She's made of felt and everything is hand stitched and hand embroidered.

Now THAT is adorable! 

Purple is the best color. 

[Katgyrl]

Aww, thanks skeen!

[pinkkittywinks]

I agree! Adorable!!!

Love pkw xxx

Shipping date is getting closer, guys!  In the next few days I'll PM your addresses.  Don't ship til the 2nd unless you know there will be a problem if you can't ship earlier.  Overseas shipping doesn't have to be sent earlier, either.  I don't need to see finalized pics (because I like the surprise as much as your recipients!) but you can send them if you wish.  Obviously if you have questions let me know right away, and make sure to send me the tracking number (unless you're overseas - if tracking is crazy-expensive don't worry about it.  If it goes missing I'll make a replacement). 

[Skeen]

Shipping date is this Thursday!  I have PMed addresses, so if you didn't get one let me know right away.  If you KNOW you can't ship on Thursday let me know right away.  I know things come up at the last minute. 

Is everyone done?  Almost?  Any problems?  I finished mine last night and she is AWESOME!  I don't want to let her go!

I just figured out that I got the wrong color hair for mine yesterday. Partner is it okay if the hair is not accurate?

[rosierjay]

i'm ok with that.

just one more extra to buy then i'm ready to ship out.
sorry there aren't any extra homemade items. the holidays sucked up all my time this year.

I'm ok if the hair color is off. As long as you tried your best, I know how finding that exact color can be tricky.
