Lime green teddy bear

a special bear a friend comissioned me to make for her mother. typical fleece made. since im getting paid for it, i paid close attention to how i painted on detail and my stitching habits. The reason ii say that is because when i make things for myself, i sew more casually and nonchantly, making it prone to falling apart. even so, my stuff usually sits on a shelf so itll never fall apart anyway.

Regardless, i paid close attention on this. I love how it turned out. im going to pay attention to time now, and this one took almost 7 hours to get done. A ton less time than i thought. thats because usually when i try out a new pattern, i have to figure it out. this was rather easy. i should make more of different colors :3
my parents are starting to really take notice of how good my sewing is getting. now they say the stuff i make looks almost like it came directly from a store :)

another Scalemate! (with real buttons this time!)

my Moirail's other giift, a black and purple scalemate. This time ii actually fiigure out how to use buttons, so this is also the first project ive used buttons on. i loved how it turned out! XD
since one of her favorite trolls is Gamzee, i put grey polka dots on his tummy to match the grey dots on Gamzee's pants. 
the last pic is of my very first scalemate and the new one. 



Cod, i love making scalemates <3
