Katie B @kbarz.bsky.social · 29/11/2025So glad he got to you guys! From my cats to yours, have fun with him. 030
Katie B @kbarz.bsky.social · 02/08/2025I definitely think weighting the foot section and using an internal structure is the way to go! 000
Katie B @kbarz.bsky.social · 02/08/2025But for the Desert Bus Rizzo, I had learned a lot about how to set the legs to hold the weight. He’s much steadier than V2, with polyfill through the ankle and split peas through the foot but I went with thin bamboo as the armature. 110
Katie B @kbarz.bsky.social · 02/08/2025For the next Rizzo I used wood inside the leg. I also stuffed the top section through the ankle with polyfill and the foot with split peas to weight the foot. Much better! 100
Katie B @kbarz.bsky.social · 02/08/2025The first one I made I only used polyfill but found the thinner ankle section would bend and the feet were too light 100
Katie B @kbarz.bsky.social · 02/08/2025Progress update on Rizzo for @desertbus.org! I really want to keep highlighting what I’ve changed from the initial patterns and instructions and one of the main things is how I have gotten him to stand #dbcraftalong #db2025 130
Katie B @kbarz.bsky.social · 19/06/2025Thanks, this is Rizzo 2.0 who is destined for my brother for Christmas. Great model ;) 010
Katie B @kbarz.bsky.social · 18/06/2025This is actually the third Rizzo pattern I have cut out of single Snuggie so a reasonable brown blanket would definitely also work 020
Katie B @kbarz.bsky.social · 18/06/2025Ok let’s talk materials - I live somewhere with one frustrating non-quilt fabric store. They of course did not have brown faux fur (or anything similar) but luckily I thrifted a great option - a brown Snuggie. The nap of the washed Snuggie reads very muppet. #DB2025 #DBCraftAlong 3120
Katie B @kbarz.bsky.social · 10/06/2025Really excited to start my Desert Bus For Hope craft along - I’m following this Etsy pattern and making a Rizzo the rat from The Muppets Christmas Carol www.etsy.com/ca/listing/1... #DBCraftAlong #DB2025etsy.com 150
