To all the people waiting to see me finish the sheep suit...well I'm currently making a radio, but I'll get back to the sheep eventually. 😅

Very hard to get pics by myself...😳 This suit is not made for dexterity but it's pretty mobile. Very warm though! 🐑🥵🐑

Half stuffed! Stuffing things is always very hard on my back. 😩 Suffering for my art, yadda, yadda...🐑🐑🐑

So after idiotically sewing the right leg body liner seam to the left leg baffle, I got to unstitch that and resew it. The legs are done! Just the arms to go now and the body will (should...) be done!

Dante's Inferno hath no hellscape like sewing all these pieces together. ☠️ How something so cute and soft could be so torturous, is beyond me. Sometimes I wish I had a boyfriend (or girlfriend I guess😅) if only to help me wrangle such projects. But alas, it seems I must suffer alone for my art.🐑🐑🐑

I felt the need to practice balloon bowties today for...reasons...and I felt like @texsaber.bsky.social should try out this kind of accessory!

The kobold onesie is done! Features a big plush tail and horns. Only had enough material to make it from the crotch up. 😅 Which is totally fine. This style is always fun to make! But I do prefer full body ones. My legs get cold...🥶 I have now been up for 22 hours and it's finally time for bed! 😴

I dug up some darker blue, but I don't have a huge amount of it. The game is now, get this done before I can go to bed and also hope that I have enough material to work with...😬 I don't know why I do this to myself! 😅

Finally days off! I have chosen my plushie for tonight...among other things...😳...but I do not have suitable attire! So let's take a short break from your regularly scheduled sheep programming and see if we can turn this chunk of blue fleece into a kobold onesie in time for bed! ⌛

I purposely left the whir of my sewing machine motor in the background to cover up the usual background noise of my difficulty breathing and "you haven't eaten in half an hour!!!" stomach complaints. 😅 Plushie hand hooves! I love them very much! 😍🐑🥰

It is getting increasingly difficult to take my own pictures! 😅 These hand hooves are not quite useless, but the dexterity is severely limited...just how it should be! 😳🐑🥰

One arm done! Nothing too exciting. It's basically the same as the leg but smaller. 😅 But I share these updates to show that I am putting at least a couple of hours of work into this thing every work day plus 6-12 hours every day off! Gotta get this sheep finished!!! 🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑

This is pre liner and stuffing, so the shape will likely change a little bit, but damn! I'm so happy with these hoof mitts!!! 😍 I just scribbled some shapes and this is the result. They're so damn cute!!! I kind of just want to make a dozen more of them TBH. 🐑🐑🐑

1.75 completed sheep legs! 🐑🐑🐑 I have been working on a pattern and then making feet hooves for about 12 hours now. They are done. I think they're pretty cute! And that is all I am going to sew today. 😴

How To Sew Like A Professional Step One: Get an old transformer to use as a pattern weight. Mid century Hewlett Packard is my preferred vintage. Step Two: Lamps! You can never have enough light. Forget fabric and thread and all that junk. All you really need are lamps!

Sheep leg! 🐑 Sewed one seam wrong, unstitched, sewed it wrong a second time...🤬, unstitched, sewed it all the right way! 🥳 Shape not quite right...😣 unstitched five seams, adjusted some pieces, sewed it back together, and now I think it's good! This is why I like working from existing patterns! 😅

I appreciate all the interest in my latest project! Doing anything has been hard lately, but the comments especially, keep me inspired and motivate me to keep going! So thanks to those who've shown interest, and feel free to pester and tease me about it. I'll never admit this, but I enjoy it. 😳

I knew sewing the ears on by hand would suck, but it was even worse than I imagined. It's not like regular fur where you can trim and brush it out of the way. I fear I greatly underestimated the sheer amount of time required for this project. 😅🐑🐑🐑

I guess the cat is out of the bag now! Except it's a sheep... The sheep is out of the pen now! 🐑🐑🐑 14 baffles, 6 zippers so far, ten polyfill compartments. I'm so damn tired and I have so much more to do. 😭 This is the plushiest suit I have ever made! 🥰

This monstrosity has grown to be very complex. I sew less like an artist and more like an engineer! 😅 Four zippers so far and 13 baffles to secure polyfill. I figure I'm about 10% done so far.

When I sew internal zippers such as on liners, I like to leave these little pockets to tuck the pulls into. More comfortable that way. But I forget not to cut them open all the way 90% of the time. 😅 But this time, I remembered! On three whole zippers!

Anyone ever have these clips just explode in their hands? I've broken five of them on this project and I'm developing PTSD. I'm afraid I'm gonna lose an eye! 😬

I have made liquid gold! Auric Chloride. I also made stannous chloride to test it out of curiosity. Very neat to see this bright yellow liquid, but gonna have to precipitate it out and see what sort of tiny bead I end up with. 😅

Here's a pic that better displays his size. The Appa plushie I sleep with every night and a half used, standard sized roll of duck tape for scale. 😅

I have been sewing for pretty much 12 hours straight! ☠️ I can finally take a break. 😩 Also, if anyone has any leads on BIG eyes for enormous plushies, hit me up! I have no idea what I'm going to do for his eyes. 😅
