Hi all, hope you had a great weekend! Today i cut out and stuffed most of the cinnamon rolls for the upcoming breakfast shop update! I also snagged a pic with some cinnamon rolls i had at the house 👀 but there's a strong chance I'll be making my own cinnamon rolls for more pictures!!
I also began testing some sublimation for a new breakfast buddy that'll be joining the group this year!
Superbowl sunday more like superbee... superbeewl.. superbeel... sunday amirite?

Those who pledge to the sticker tier; tips, tutorials & sticker tier; or ditto plush tiers between March 1-31 will receive this lil guy in the mail!
Hope you all had a nice Saturday!
Today i finished up the embroidery for the cinnamon rolls. My machine was not being nice with these last night so i gave it a break - i had 2 massive needle breaks, one of them pictured here 💀 i dont think I've ever seen one like that before! I had another one happen immediately after that so i called it a night. But then today my sensor Q foot snapped! T...
Happy Friday!
I started my day off by finalizing a couple tutorial posts here! The first one is on patterning simple muzzles and can be found here.
After that i started putting together the d...

Hey all!
I got a late start to my day after taking my dad to a doctor's appointment, but i was still able to get all the sublimation done for the bacon dittos and I'm getting them sewn together!
I also did some work prepping for another patterning post that will go up tomorrow- that's the little friend you see in these images 🤍
I also finished making hopefully enough stock of the ma...
Happy hump day!
Today i finished up designing the March sticker - oof my printer was NOT happy today and was giving me lots of issues!! So it took me a lot longer to get finalized than i would have liked >< the sticker reveal will be next week!
I also began production of the bacon dittos for the breakfast drop which i hope will be late this month! Last year when i made them i was st...

hey all! while working on the hopen textiles mochi minky guide i have also updated the big z mochi minky guide to include their newest color, blush. it's a very light peachy tan that would work for a light skin tone. the entire guide can be accessed here:
i got back to work today after taking a long weekend to help my dad move! hope you all had a great weekend.
i started the day by making some more bacon & egg ditto stickers. while those were being cut, i released the waffleback lizard ITH embroidery file, which can be accessed by $5 tips &...

Hey all! It's been a very busy day for me between working on my art and doing things for my dad's move which is tomorrow.

Ive also finished sewing together the March ditto pl...
hope you all have had a wonderful february 1! im getting more and more tags in finished clodsire plush pics and i'm loving all of what i'm seeing 😍 you guys work FAST! i sent out the clodsire pattern in messages last night, but patreon did not deliver a lot of them. i sent it out through the email attached to your patreon, but if you did not receive it and pledged to the $5 tips & tutori...

Hey all! Man, today went by so fast!
I spent most of it on reward fulfillment! I've prepackaged stickers for february's sticker club! I like having a bunch of envelopes prepped and ready to go so i can quickly grab them, pop an address on and get them out!
And of course, the clodsire pattern was released! Its available2023-01-31 22:54:54 +0000 UTC

Hope you all are having a great Sunday!
Today is day 2 of fulfillment for my shop update! I'm going to try and pack up most of the orders. I start with any orders that i need to combine, like from people who placed multiple orders. Then i go through and do batches of the same item (for example everyone who bought 1 scented sugar cookie, then do all the unscented ones, etc).
I have almost ...
Hey all, hope you had a great saturday!
My valentines day shop update was earlier today - thank you to everyone who supported me!! My new shop handled things wonderfully today, I'm so relieved!
The first day of fulfillment is always scenting and hand sewing the dittos. Since i allow my customers to choose a scent option, i dont lock in a certain number as scented or unscented. This means ...
hi all, hope you had a nice friday!
today i've done final posts & preparation for my shop update that is happening tomorrow, jan 28 at 1pm EST! i've gotten the strawberry boxes prepped and also have a bunch of mailing boxes to tape up tonight. don't forget to set alarms if you're interested! cross your fingers that my new shop handles everything smoothly 🤪🤞

Hey everyone! Today i did some work to prep a few tip posts for $5 tips & tutorials patrons and higher, got all the single sweetditto pins on their backing cards, and did the majority of the editing for the waffleback lizard timelapse video!
I'm also still working through creating the hopen textile guide! I've matched about 2/3 of the colors and then i have to go back through and take ph...
FINALLY! i got the backing cards for the single sweetdittos!
it's a long story how these ended up being made... these single sweetdittos were meant to be the pink pins in my sweetditto set, but my manu REALLY screwed up the color and they came out purpley-pink... too close to purple for it to loo...

first of all, 500 PATRONS!! AHH! i can't believe it! i set this as a major stretch goal for me and you guys just knocked it out of the park. i am totally humbled and honored! thank you all so much!
this means that the goal to complete the color guide for hopen mochi minky has been met! i will try to finish it in a timely manner but it will be a lot of work so it will take some time!
Hey all, hope you had a good weekend!
Today i finished putting all the sweetditto pins on their backing cards! Really glad to have this finished it took a lot longer than i thought it would 😅
Tomorrow I'm going to be finishing all preparations for my shop update this Saturday, jan 28 at 1pm est by taking the last pictures necessary and finishing up all the listings on shopify!

Hey everyone! Hope you're having a great weekend!
It's cold and rainy by me and after a long day of traveling yesterday it is the perfect day to relax and get these pins on their backing cards! I'm so in love with how this set came out 🥰
Hey all! I'm busy all day today traveling to prepare for my dads move. Here are some of the waffleback lizards I've made to show off the possibilities of the ITH pattern that will be a reward in February!
You can use mochi or normal minky. You can also just make em plain without any scales, or make them look closer to real shingleback lizards!
I also took a nice product photo late yesterd...

I've had a long and exhausting day of traveling for family stuff today (my dad is in poor health and we're moving him up to a facility by me 😓) but i got to come home to the last of the sweetditto pins, which means the set is finally complete! 😍 i just love how they all look with the backing card!

Here's a preview of another reward in February for $5 tips & tutorials and higher patrons: a waffleback lizard ITH file!
In keeping with the valentines day breakfast theme, i chose shingleback lizards because they mate for life, could form a heart shape when 2 were made, and are a mighty good play on words 🧇🤎
