I finished dying the other Velvets' fur yesterday, I still am so happy about how well it worked. It's still a bit of a pain to do, but if I actually let it all air dry it wouldn't be as tedious. I also made some minor adjustments to her pattern, and I'll be using a little bit darker brown for her body too. Hopefully someone won't mind getting the lighter version.

I still got a tooooooooon of hand sewing and details to add to the rest of the plushies (like bald leg Oleanader over there) I want to re-wire her legs anyway with the thicker wire too. Actually now that I think about it, I might try to dye some fur to be a better fit for her legs... well at least I'm learning new things, haha.

I bought some fabric for Pom that's coming in tomorrow. I really wanted to use a sherpa for her, but couldn't find one in the right color so she'll just be made out of minky. Once these Velvets are done, along with a Paprika beanie, I'll be getting started on her. The last backer never responded who they wanted, sooo I'm making Pom for them and hope they'll be happy with her, aha. But this way I can complete the set! I can't wait to take a big group photo.

I also fixed my needle threader on my Pfaff, yay! After actually opening it up, I just realized the stupid prong that actually threads the needle was only bent....so I bent it back in place and now it works fine.

I'll probably spend the rest of today making beanie kits, but hopefully I can get to sewing the Velvets tomorrow.
