Custom plush - Season 2 Princess Luna - MLP Fair 1ST PLACE
« on: August 02, 2014, 10:34:04 PM »
My entry in the 2014 MLP Fair custom contest!  She was in the handicrafts division.  Luna was only finished at the very last minute (literally in the hotel room the night before!) and I was afraid to enter her in the contest because I didn't know if she'd be good enough.   :blush:  I was so surprised to win and was shaking so hard I could barely hold on to the medal!

She was 9 months in the making, one of the very first things I ever embroidered on my machine.  Photos really don't do her justice, IMHO.  ;)  Her pattern's complexity intimidated me so I shelved her for months at a time, and then at the end wound up drafting new patterns for her hair and accessories myself!  I made EIGHT shoes before I had the hang of it you guys!  EIGHT!!!  And like 3 tails!   :blink:

She is stunning! All of your hard work and fine attention to detail have totally done this girl some serious justice. Congrats on your win and on pushing yourself to go ahead even when you were less than confidant.

May I ask if there's anything you might change if you were to make another one?

She looks absolutely brilliant, though! Major congratulations!

I'd change the shape and size of the wings (draft my own patterns), move her eyes up, and make her shoes part of her legs, not added on afterward. 

We're always our own worst critics.   :P
