Hey Bluesky, could you help me signal boost my Big Cartel shop? A sale or two would be a massive help. Jeremy Creatures are designed and hand-sewed by me, and they take many hours to create. jeremycreature.bigcartel.com
Here's a lovely photo of a plethora of hand-sewn fabric art creatures. There's a watermelon creature with a red face, eight black seed-like eyes, and a wide mouth with five sharp teeth. There's a white ghost trinket bag covered with purple embroidered flowers. She has a gray face, sparkly black eyes and a little frown. There's a strawberry creature with three bulbous green eyes. There's a watermelon ghost, and a black creature with sharp teeth wearing a bulbous eye earring. There's a large purple creature with many yellow eyes and an open mouth, with a little green creature popping her head out. All the creatures are sitting on green fur and there's a galaxy print fabric in the background.

Meet my newest creation: Lapina Burrowlight the Cosmic Bunny. I designed and hand-sewed her, and I hand-embroidered all her stars and planets. She enjoys discovering new cosmic truths, baking cookies, and making friends throughout the universe. jeremycreature.bigcartel.com
Here's a lovely photo of Lapina. She's a fabric art bunny of sorts. She's black with a gray face, seven red eyes, a little open mouth with six pointy teeth. She has long black and gray ears, and two twirly tentacles. Her body is covered with hand-embroidered stars of various sizes and colors. There's also an embroidered red planet with a yellow ring and another purple planet. She's holding a yellow fabric egg. There's green fur in the background of the pic.Here's another lovely photo of Lapina where she's resting on my palm.Here's a lovely photo of Lapina's back. Here too she's covered with embroidered stars of various sizes and colors. She's holding the egg of destiny in her tentacle.

Here's a pic of everyone currently available at my Big Cartel shop. Jeremy Creatures are designed and hand-sewed by me, and they take many hours to create. jeremycreature.bigcartel.com
Here's a lovely photo of 4 of my fabric art creatures. One of them is a stone-looking gumdrop-shaped guy with black wide set eyes and a wide frown. He has four curvy head wisps and two twirly tentacles. Two of the creatures are black, cosmic spirits covered with various stars and planets of various sizes and colors. One of the cosmic spirits is a moon face with twinkly black eyes and a black frown. One of the cosmic guys is a sun face with twinkly red eyes and a red frown. One creature is a white ghost with a gray face, twinkly black eyes, and an open mouth with two white teeth. He has a rainbow flower embroidered on his forehead. He has two little arms. Everyone but the stone guy is a bag with a metal coin purse clasp on the top of their head. The stone guy is sitting on a small wire metal chair. There's a galaxy print fabric in the background and the ground is made of green fur.

obsessed with thomas. happy pride 🪿🌈✨
tumblr post with a screenshot of an article titled “Blind Bisexual Goose Named Thomas Who
Spent Six Years in a Love Triangle With Two Swans And Helped Raise 68 Babies Dies at The Ripe Old Age Of 40”

subheading: He's a bit much

MAY 29, 2024

RIP to the legendtumblr post continues

This goose fucking rocks and had a crazy life!
(link to Thomas’ wikipedia article)

I really just have to summarize Thomas's entire life:

• He was in a committed relationship with a male swan named Henry for 18-24 years before a female swan named Henrietta showed up and mated with Henry.
• Thomas was initially jealous of the pair and attacked them, breaking 2 of the 5 eggs Henrietta had laid. However, once the remaining eggs hatched, Thomas warmed up to them and helped raise them.
• Henry couldn't fly because of an injured wing, so Thomas taught the cygnets how to fly.
• When they needed to reduce the goose population in the pond where Thomas and the swans lived, they dyed Thomas's feathers red so he wouldn't be separated from Henry.
• Henry, Henrietta, and Thomas remained in their happy throuple for years and raised 68 cygnets before Henry died in 2009. After Henry's death, Henrietta found another swan and flew away, leaving Thomas alone.
•Thomas finally met and mated with a female goose in 2011 and had his own babies. However, another goose named George stole them and raised them himself.
• As Thomas grew elderly and blind, he was relocated to a wildlife center where he raised orphaned cygnets.
• His caretaker at the center described him as "pretty high maintenance."
• Thomas died in 2018 at the age of around 40. He had a funeral that included a small coffin and a procession that was led by a bagpiper.
He was buried under the stone where Henry was buried, the two finally reunited in death.
• Before and after his death, Thomas has been celebrated as an icon of the LGBTQ+ community for obvious reasons.

Meet my newest fabric art creature: Augmentia. My little niece asked for a yellow multiplication sign girl for her birthday, so this is who I created for her. Augmentia loves cooking for people, and she always makes way more than enough. Often 2 or 3 times too much.
Here's a lovely photo of Augmentia. She's a fabric art multiplication sign with bulbous eyes and pink eyeshadow. Her body is covered with embroidered pink flowers. In the middle of the multiplication sign are her pink lips. There's a beautiful galaxy print fabric in the background.

Meet my newest fabric art creations: Gossamerna the Semi-Powerful Enchantress and P.P.P. Peanut. I designed, hand-sewed, and hand-embroidered the ghost bag as well as her child P.P.P. Peanut. Gossamerna is filled with magical items that she's devoured over the years. jeremycreature.bigcartel.com
Here's a lovely photo of Gossamerna and P.P.P. Peanut. She's a white ghost bag with a gray face, twinkly black eyes, and a little frown. She's covered with embroidered red flowers and little black markings around the flowers. There's also a row of short red lines on either side of her eyes. The top of her head is a metal coin purse clasp, because she's a bag. Peanut is attached magnetically to the clasp. Peanut is a small fabric art ghost with red flower eyes and a little frown. There's a beautiful galaxy print fabric in the background.Here's another lovely photo of Gossamerna. Here, Peanut is resting inside the pouch on Gossamerna's belly. His eyes are peeking out.Here's another lovely photo where Gossamerna is resting on my palm, and Peanut is again attached to the clasp.Here's a lovely photo where we can see the lining of the bag. This is a beautiful black fabric featuring various gold mystical items and creatures. There are potion bottles, a cat familiar, a crow wearing a witch hat.
