Rubys Plushie (accidents)

[Ruby Dusk 39]

Uhm... okay... so I'm REALLY new in here, but might as well post my ... "things" right away, I guess. xD
 
I sew a lot (when I've got enough money to order fabric, that is).
However, at least in my opinion, I'm not that good at it yet.
There's always room to improve tho and experience grows with each try.
 
And, of course, critique also helps a bunch (as long as it's constructive).
But, yeh, talking is boring, have some pictures (ordered by fabrication date):

 

Apple Bloom

 

 

 

 

 

 

Radiant Hope (Or something? xD)

 

 

 

 

 

 

Greyworthy

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sunshine Smiles

 

 

 

 

 

 

They are all completely handmade.

Fabric used is (oh surprise) shannon minky.

 

Apple Bloom was... my very first sewed thing ever (except a pillow in middle-school).

 

Radiant failed completely (d'oh).

 

Greyworthy was actually a commission, and the person who ordered it was satisfied, so it's okay.

 

And Sunshine Smiles went pretty well, except for her hair which needs improvements. But overall it's okay and I know where my errors are now.

 

So... I... hope you like them at least a bit.

And as I said, critique is welcome as long as it's productive.

 

PS: I hope I'm in the correct section, I read through the rules and stuff but... welp. xD

 

PPS: Please don't hit me... at least not too hard.

PPPS: Excuse the photo quality, I started editing the pictures with Sunshine Smiles.

I think that you are getting the hang of it. Keep up the good work.

What cute little plushies!

 

You've come a long way - you can see how much you've improved, even just a few plushies in! I love your hand embroidery, as well.

Whoa, THOSE are your first attempts at plushie making? You're a natural talent, Ruby! <3 You're starting off at a pretty high level and I'm excited to see more of your creations! 

 

(Also, are the eyes and cutie marks hand-embroidered? They look amazing, I bet they took a lot of time and energy to make! )

 

 

As for critique... Maybe it's just my pet peeve, but perhaps you could try making your photo sets a little more tidy? There's a lot going on in the backgrounds and it's sorta distracting... A plain sheet of fabric in the background would make the plushie pop out more.

@Merion Yeah, I know, I reaaaally need to work on the representation.

Also, yes, they are hand-embroidered. ^^

 

And thanks everyone. :3

Are you planning on doing commissions here on the forums in the future?

Are you planning on doing commissions here on the forums in the future?

Considering that I can only plush when I get commissions, I'd do everything for a comm-request. x'D

So, it is very likely, yes.

If ... someone wants that, of course.

These are awesome! Even Apple bloom looks amazing for your very first time doing this! Wonderful!

How does one commission you?

How does one commission you?

Usually via Twitter, deviantArt, PM or E-Mail.

There's no special way, really (altho dA is most popular, since it's the release platform).

All super cute! Keep it up!

I have sewn quite a lot. And by sewn, I mean I've spent hours yelling at my sewing machine because I just can't master it. It's sew challenging (I will never apologize for a pun!)!

These are really, really good. Super squishy and soft-looking and adorable. And well made! I hope you continue to share with us. (: I wanna see more and more!

Those are amazing, are you sure that you're a first timer?

[Ruby Dusk 39]

Thanks everypony. :3

 

And @Fire Twii I reaaally hope so.

Don't want no amnesia.
