Putting my minky to good use.
2 min read
I haven't had much time to do actual plushies yet, its been a hectic winter of a full class schedule and making up for us being short-staffed at work. I did get a few prototypes started, so expect those sometime in the summer.
However, I am going to start making fleece/minky cosplay pony tails to sell in an etsy shop, as I'm getting antsy with all this fabric lying around. I'll try to make some this weekend, and get shop set up. I believe I'll be selling the fleece ones for $20 and minky for $35. I just got some fleece to make Derpy ones, so those will probably come first.
Cheers!

Minky, the good and the bad
3 min read
I've been excitedly waiting for my Minky fabric to arrive, and it finally came in yesterday! The quality is OUTSTANDING, and the price was great ($6.90 a yard). If anyone is hoping to buy Minky or any other fabric, I highly recommend fabricempire.com
However, Fabric Empire had a bit of a limited selection on colors, so I bought the rest of the colors I needed from Fabric.com. Has anyone else had trouble with them? Its been over a week and they are just now shipping my orders, and I received an email Friday that 3 of the fabrics I ordered were out of stock. I sent them back an email immediately politely asking how I will be refunded for those, and have yet to get a reply from customer service. Considering those colors were the ones I needed most from them, I don't think I will be buying from Fabric.com again.
That said, does anyone else have fabric stores they recommend? I'll be needing to find a place that sells green, orange, and turquoise minky, since Fabric.com bailed on me for that.
EDIT: One of my two Fabric.com orders just came in the mail, and yeah, service has been pretty terrible. The fabric felt wet, which I'm just going to let go and contribute to the heat, but that's not all. They pulled yet another of the things I ordered off my list (thats now 4 items wrongly stated as being in-stock on their website), the colors did not match well with the online colors, and charged me for shipping since my order fell under 35 dollars. The main reason I bought from them was free shipping and their range of colors, but considering they couldn't keep either of those things, I can not say it enough: Don't buy from them.

Confirmed for Welovefine T-shirt Makin'
2 min read
So a few days back I got confirmation on becoming a Welovefine artist, and I've been experimenting around with different design ideas and such. They said both some of the art I've already done could work for t-shirts, as well as some of the ideas I had planned. I want to compile a few designs before I send in anything to get approved by Hasbro, so here's where I really need help. Of the pony artwork I've already done, which ones seem most appropriate for t-shirts? Also, what new designs would you like to see? More stained glass things? Cartoony style? Please say so in the comments!
