working on a Rainbow Dash plushie

at #Galacon I tried to draw stuff. There were some results. The car one and the squirrel could be found on the endless paper roll which went to the charity auction later
I should do more drawing to improve my skills😅

raise the flags! #galacon

driving to the Galacon!

added an instagram account
still new and empty, but it will be used for all kinds of meet-up photos. Mostly because when I take some I get asked for Insta…..

I won’t have a vendor table at Galacon, but I will take a lot of pictures. Also I can provide some first aid to plushies, or take some good photos of your cosplay or plushies. Just feel free to say ‚hi‘ :)

I won’t be too active next months. There are too many unfinished tasks built up in the recent years which I need to complete first.
But I will sew from time to time!
Like this commissioned Scoots I just completed will fly to BabsCon this week

Last weekend I could complete Scootaloo. She is around 26cm/10" 'tall', and is based on a shrunken pattern for fillys of my "2.5 standing pattern"
The photo colour is a bit warm, the fabics used are Shannons cuddle Mango and Magenta

oh, that’s just three strings of faux fur which are… braided

Hi everyone,
for the last months Iwaskind of quiet, and did other stuff than sewing. But I created a new pattern for fillys. This is the prototype, and I still need to tweak some minor stuff, but all in all I am quite happy how it turned out. Its about 25cm high, maybe I will make it a bit smaller

9/9 Cadence is now back to her old beauty!
It took a bit longer than expected, but now she is ready to be picked up by her owner. It was intersting to meet my own skills from some years ago, and where I improvedover that time.

and having companies like MS, Amazon or Rolls Royce and their small reactors we are a step closer to a glowing bright future

still working on Cadence, had not too much time. Complete new head piece, some imporvements in stabalizing mane and ear fabric pieces to prevent wrinkles. Currently sewing her back mane. I used a lot of pins to trace the old sewing line :D

Hello to all people and ponies who started following me here on BlueSky in the recent days! 👋

when Minky looks like a miniature towel after washing, go get a brush. For years now I am using a cheapo dental brush, but also a toddler hair brush.
Pictures of before and after

6/?
all parts are clean now!

5/?
The body is also ready to be washed. Ears, wings and the head it self are taken off. Without the stuffing the stains in her coat are much more visible

4/?
Today I started disassembling the plushie. These parts are in the washing machine right now. On the photos you can clearly see the stain as shadows. The end of the tail has the old / to be colour

3/?
- and improve some areas
On this pictures you can see the discoloration by soot. The room she was in didn't burn but had a lot of soot on the walls. Luckily Cadence had been laying on the floor, where the damage due to soot was a lot less. On a table she would been dark grey

2/?
Cadence looks quite dirty on the pictures, but inreality it is much more, mainly to to that unique smell of ... yes, house fires.
So I will do the following the next weeks and months
-open all hand-sewn threads
- replacing the filling
- washing
- replace parts as needed
...

Cadence restoration
Last weekend I got some sad news. One of my plushie creation became victim of an apparment fire. Luckily she was not burned, but got a lot of smoke and soot.
So I picked her up some days ago to try to restore her.

… my daily routine consisted of employed work (9to5), sewing for hours until 10 or midnight and some sleep.
Now I can make up for everything that I laid back. And that’s a lot 😅

So, again, THANK YOU SO MUCH!!

hello everpony,
@gala_con has closed its doors. A huge huge THANK YOU to everyone who bought of of my crafts, may it be a plushie, a drinking horn, a bottle or even dogtags and necklace ‚thingies‘. For me it means a lot! Looking back to months long hard labour where …

day 2, lets go!

my vendor table at the GalaCon

wo 70 ist, fahr ich sogar max 77. Leider kann der Hyundai Tempomat beim Halten des Knopfs ‚nur‘ 10er Schritte. Dann sinds auf einmal doch nur 70. Och, schade für die hinter mir…..

One small accessory for your plushie, Myölnir hammers in different colours.

Sunset Shimmer is the final plushie for my Galacon vendor table. She‘s a small laying plushie, including a magnet in her belly
