My name is Bex! She/Her. I'm a self-employed plush maker and designer of scientifically accurate soft toy extinct creatures and obscure critters. I also try my hand at digital painting, sculpting and other arty things. On top of my own creations, I share lots of content related to whatever my interests are at the moment, as well as photos of my pet rats and my aquarium. Click here for my online shop!
Did you know? Dot is on Sunset System!
I couldn't submit them without passing up the opportunity to write some robotic existentialism, so go give it a read if you'd like. Don't leave your printer alone for too long, it might start having some strange ideas.
Thank you, prokhorVLG!
Quick question. On your website there used to be a function where we could enter an email and get an alert when some is back in stock. Is that not a thing anymore? Just wondering cause I saw you have the lochness plushies now and wanted to get one when you had more and didn't see anywhere to enter an email for a re-stock alert.
Hello!
It's still a thing, you just have to select a variant/colour before the box pops up!
I'll be making more nessies soon, but they're gonna be different colours (all unique) but I can make sure anyone who has signed up to one of the other variants can get an email when they're in stock.
2024, hand bleached and dyed denim, cotton batting and thread
inspired by blackwater photography of plankton! this was my first time layering bleach painting. All the silhouettes were painted with bleaching gel, loosely tie dyed, and then bleached again to make the highlights. I quilted the piece using my free motion foot to outline each individual animal and tacked down the rest of the quilt with small satin stitches that remind me of marine snow. I dyed bias tape to match. super happy with this one and excited to show it in a gallery setting soon!
ive debated telling this story for a while but i think its something youd enjoy. i live in tasmania, home of the 'tasmanian tiger' oe thylacine. and i had a teacher who loved to go hiking, and loved to collect plush toy thylacines, which he would take hiking with him, and leave in caves, or on ledges, or anywhere just visible enough to be seen. he liked to point them out to people as if they were real. i just think it was sweet and that its something youd find nice
