Description I'm mostly just pre-cutting and prepping all these little buggers to save myself time and effort for when a convention nears or when my shop starts looking empty. This is the reason why you might notice some doubles, though none will be quite the same. The masks, markings or beads will vary in colour. The thing is; I have a HUGE closet full of faux furs and it's easier to cut out multiple parts of the same colour in one go than doing one at the time of each colour.

For those who have less to spend there will also be keychain versions.Β 

I wanted to do more yesterday but my embroidery machine refused to cooperate and I struggled with it for the better part of the afternoon. The thread on the back kept bunching and messing up. Eventually I found the issue after taking it apart and replaced it with a spare part I quite fortunately still had.Β

I hate when my sewing machine does that messing up the thread and bunching it thing. Wow that's awesome you offer these guys in key chain versions, is your etsy shop open? would love to check it out.

Tell me about it. :c Sewing/embroidery machines can be your best friend or your worst enemy. I always fear the worst even though some proper maintainance can help a lot. The problem was the bobbin holder. It must've been completely worn out for it kept swallowing thread and messing up the tension. When the thread starts bunching the bobbin area is usually the issue.

Fortunately my machine came with two spare ones (one of which has been worn out as well) and it works better than it has in awhile. But because of this setback I haven't been able to finish any mini floppies yet so I'll keep my shop closed for one extra day. But some more will pop up this week, I promise c:

yikes lately my machine has been ripping my fabric through the runner and when I try to re-thread the thread it comes out in knots. Ugh it annoys me and I just got my machine back >-<, yes some days it runs smooth and fast and other days it just frustrates us by pulling this stuff. I love sewing in my spare time but sadly I can't keep spending money on a machine that goes on the fritz so often. I had my machine a long time, I'm thinking about possibly getting a new one, really frustrating and a shame. I was trying to make a white stag spirit plush but sadly the machine ate my fabric Also sometimes the bobbin holder gets stuck. Thankfully for me my plush is still in earlier stages of development so the damage isn't too bad, hopefully I can get a new machine soon or atleast find someone who can help me. But in the meantime I'm staying positive, I'm going to try some knitting for now maybe I can make a Lion guardian coaster. I can't wait to see them! Let me know it turns outΒ

While I'm at it, any color you'd like to see? c: Prices for these minis are around $60-75 USD. It depends a bit on the fabric.
