JoeCon 2012

June 29, 2012 conventions, cute 2 comments

After all the fun at HeroesCon in Charlotte last weekend we decided to take a little vacation to another convention, JoeCon in New Orleans. I’ve never been to New Orleans, so I’m really excited to get out and explore as well as hit the con! I may also be featured on a podcast while I’m here!

Since I had some G.I. Joe plush needing homes, I figured JoeCon would be a great place to find some fans. If you’re at JoeCon this weekend, look for my info on the room-to-room trading board or just keep an eye out for me and my creations on the exhibit floor. Yo Joe!

So I finally got all theconvention dolls I’d planned on making finished! Two hundred and five if you’re wondering.

I’m not done yet though. I still have some plush to make that’s a different size and style than my standard plush. Here was my first endeavor….

Stay tuned for more updates and hopefully some vidoes!

August 9, 2010 bats, crafts, cute One comment

Guys, I think we have a little bat problem…


I took a little break from comic character plush this weekend to make some little plush bats. (Although I still got all nerdy and named them after Batman characters. I have an illness.)


I made four each of beige, brown and dark grey.Each one has a different cotton fabric for the wings. I have a big stash and I think these little guys are a good way to use up smaller bits. They’re only about 7″ tall (not including ears) so they don’t take much fabric and they’re wee enough to carry around. I actually carried one around in my purse over the weekend.

It may be obvious, but I’ll mention it. I have a thing for bats. I’ve always thought they were cute and super interesting. (This is largely due to the fact that I go educational presents like Zoobooks when I was small.) Like did you know bats are more closely related to monkeys than rodents?
Also, my boyfriend is Batman so I get to see them a lot while chilling in the batcave. He just complains about guano on the Batmobile.
