Finishing cosmic brownie dittos & sublimation fun (Patreon)

Happy Saturday!
Today i was finishing up the embroidery for the cosmic brownie dittos for april's plush tier reward. As i was about to sew on the backs i decided to sublimate a darker brown mochi; cosmic brownies have a lighter top frosting and a darker brownie, and the difference between the brown i was using for the top and bottom wasn't enough for me! i love mochi but it's dark brown color choices leave a LOT to be desired.

So i busted out princess presscilla pancake and tested some dark browns on big z's light brown mochi which is the darkest brown mochi i know of.  Interestingly, this mochi lost a LOT of its color when pressed for a long time. It became significantly lighter which negated some of the dye i was applying. I've never seen this happen before! I guess big z mochi is more heat sensitive than hopen's. 

Since my hoop can do an 8x14 area which is larger than a legal size paper l also had to split the fabric in half to sew on the backs of all 8 - another annoyance!

All this for a little difference in browns that no one will notice because it's on the back of a plush - i really hate myself sometimes 🙈
