Rancor Plush

Posted in Plush , on February 20, 2010 ,

Rancors are fierce beasts in the Star Wars universe. You may remember Luke Skywalker attempting to escape his untimely death at the jaws of a rancor by closing a door on its head. SWG players who remember the Creature Handler profession may think back fondly to when they tamed their first baby bull rancor in-game. Either way, rancors are iconic Star Wars creatures and one day I decided to sit down and draft a pattern to create a plush version of my very own from felt. All features hand sewn.

Personal pattern not available.


Rayman Raving Rabbid Plush

Posted in Plush , on February 20, 2010 ,

This is a 3D Rayman Raving Rabbid plush that I designed and created for a friend shortly after the first game was released for the Nintendo Wii. I LOVE the Rayman games! This plush is made from felt and fleece, partially machine and hand sewn. Stuffed with polyfill and lots of fun.

I later added a few accessories to allow the recipient the ability to dress the rabbid up as Superman. It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s SUPER RAYMAN RAVING RABBID!

Otters in Love

Posted in Plush , on February 20, 2010 ,

This is a set of plush otters that I designed to give to my husband. There is a small piece of velcro on the otters’ paws so that they can hold hands just like real otters do in the wild when they sleep so they don’t float apart. Partially machine and hand sewn, made from various types of felt. Plush pattern designed by me.

Knitted Duck Plush

Posted in Knit, Plush , on February 20, 2010 ,

This is a design for a knitted duck plush that I created in December 2007, loosely based on a Lion Brand pattern whose body shape was achieved by folding a knitted square corner to corner to create a triangle. This pattern is available for free on Ravelry.


Gribblies

Posted in Knit, Plush , on February 20, 2010 ,

What in the world is a “gribbly” you ask?

from urbandictionary.com:
Gribbly/Gribblies:
“In gaming, an enemy/monster that is small and/or insignificant, and usually serves no purpose other than to irritate the gamer/opponent.”

and

“In tabletop gaming, a small annoying monster that does little more than irritate.”

So these are just tiny little insignificant creatures hiding in nooks and crannies that will do little more than just irritate you if they cross your path. They like to pester and annoy whomever they come in contact with, and I like to believe that gribblies are to blame for all of those little irritating setbacks in your typical day. Having a bad day? Blame it on the gribblies!

These are two creations I designed and knit in March 2008. They stand about an inch and a half tall, with the bunny a little taller than the frog due to its long ears.


Bernard Moo Cow Plush

This is a cute baby cow plush I designed a few years ago. He is named Bernard Moo, which just seems to fit. Made from fleece and felt and hand sewn. Stuffed with polyfill and love.

Stuffiepups

Posted in Plush , on February 20, 2010 ,

Stuffiepups are an original design of mine from August 2007. They’ve gone through a few changes as I tweaked the rough draft pattern, but I’m finally happy with the creation. Made from felt and partially machine and hand sewn. Stuffed with polyfill and fun.
