I'm trying out a modified pattern for a standing version of my plushies and I'm quite happy with it.  I know some of the plushies just won't sit for various reasons, usually because of armor on the legs or an unusually heavy head, so this might be a better option in those cases.  Plus it would make some outfits more accurate because the hips aren't so strangely proportioned.  I'll post a picture once I finish my first one completely. ]]> http://eitanya.deviantart.com/journal/Floridian-Plague-292974335 http://eitanya.deviantart.com/journal/Floridian-Plague-292974335 Thu, 29 Mar 2012 13:20:51 PDT Floridian Plague nonadult journals/personal eitanya http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/e/i/eitanya.jpg?3 Copyright 2012-2013 *eitanya

I'm starting to wish I hadn't told anyone I'm pregnant.  Maybe I could've gotten away with "I eat a lot of cookies," at least for a while.  What is it about a pregnant woman that makes people have this uncontrollable urge to give advice?

Anyhoo.  I was going to cut off plushie commissions once the schedule filled up to my due date, but I really hate to do that.  So, alternate solution.  If anyone wants to commission something, I'll still do it as long as you're okay with a somewhat vague completion date.  I'm not sure how long plushies will take to co ]]> http://eitanya.deviantart.com/journal/The-cake-was-indeed-a-lie-223026980 http://eitanya.deviantart.com/journal/The-cake-was-indeed-a-lie-223026980 Mon, 01 Nov 2010 12:12:01 PDT The cake was, indeed, a lie... nonadult journals/personal eitanya http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/e/i/eitanya.jpg?3 Copyright 2010-2013 *eitanya :bulletred:Current wait for plushies: Late January:bulletred:

Yay, I managed to get my Halloween costume done in time.  Barely. :D  I wanted to make a plushie cake too, but ah well.

On a random note, I have become completely fascinated with the show Lie to Me.  Just finished season 1.  Gotta catch up!

The Fibro gods have decided I shall stay in bed today, so hopefully I can get some work done on the ebay store and maybe finish some new buttons sets.  The poor buttons have been neglected lately.

I've heard it said that it's "tacky" to give home-made gifts for Christmas once you're out of grade school.  I take issue with this.  It had to be some retailer that said this, because investing your time and talent into something means a lot more than going out and buying something just because you ]]> http://eitanya.deviantart.com/journal/Always-busy-223288568 http://eitanya.deviantart.com/journal/Always-busy-223288568 Sun, 17 Oct 2010 17:14:34 PDT Always busy... nonadult journals/personal eitanya http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/e/i/eitanya.jpg?3 Copyright 2010-2013 *eitanya
Speaking of which (plushies, I mean), currently the waiting list is filled up until mid-January, so sadly no more Christmas orders.  I'll post if anything opens up.

Not much else to report right now.  Silly Fibromyalgia is acting up now that it's getting cool.  I'm glad I don't have to be on my feet so much this winter.

Plushie commissions are filling up quickly, so holla soon if you want something for the holidays.  I'll probably only be taking 3 or 4 more commissions that can be sent out in time for Christmas.

No one bought my little Alistair, so I suppose he is just meant to stay with me.  :D

A friend of mine requested that I try making fleece hats with cat ears.  So when I get done being behind on plushie orders, I'll try being behind on hats too. ;)  It did give me a particularly awesome idea.  Hopefully I can pull it off.

Keep in mind that he is the cutesy smaller-size plushie that I don't make anymore.  Aaaaand you don't have to wait for a spot to open up on the waiting list.  :D

We wrecked my car coming back from a visit with my parents, so that's car accident #4.  I had just put in my two week notice at my job, so this basically just expedited the process.  I've decided to focus on my art full-time now so I plan to stay home and be in a car as little as possible for the foreseeable future.  Now that I'm not quite as sore from the wreck, I'm really enjoying working at home.  Even when my Fibromyalgia is all flared up, I still feel motivated and can't wait to get up in the morning and work on stuff.  That may not sound like much, but it's kind of a big deal for me.  :)

Yay, new plushie!  Got the pattern tweaked with far fewer headaches than I was expecting.  Thanks to a slight up-size (12" now), I can now machine-sew them so they'll be nice and durable and easier on yours truly.  My hands are very grateful for your understanding in this matter.  ;)
