Description Seven months after sewing my first pony, it’s finally time for a group shot of the main cast!

What an adventure! I started out sewing ponies to satiate a selfish desire for better quality plushies after inadvertently getting into MLP. Although I had only intended to get plushies of all the main characters out of this endeavour, I gained so much more from the journey alone. I learned many new skills, and developed an appreciation for an oft-underrated craft and a profound respect for its practitioners.

I cannot mark this milestone without giving shouts-out to those who have, in one way or another, helped me come this far:


Thanks also to everyone who has fav'd, watched, and commented. Your support helped pull me through some uncertain times, and I'm very grateful

More detailed pictures of each can be found on their individual deviations:

Someone is claiming to own your plushies. Warning, I don't think English is his first language, so he's going to use broken English that is very confusing and hard to understand. He's a huge thief, and if anything, I'd love to take him down, but after two months of his garbage, I can't take it anymore. Do with it what you will.


Nice handiwork by the way. Your hard work has definitely paid off.

Thanks very much for the notice! I'll submit a report to dA. I assume practically all of his other posts have been stolen as well?

Pretty much. I already took a lot of time to report a lot of his stolen works. Anything that isn't blatantly stolen are recolours of uncredited linearts and a photoshoped image of bull that he claimed to be his work... Everything that I reported has already been taken down, thank goodness, but he doesn't seem to be the type to really listen, so reporting is all I could really do.

Oooor they could just take the time to learn it

Thanks, although I'd say that until I draft my own patterns from scratch, I can't attribute this to talent... unless you're referring to the talent for following instructions

Many things, first of all, i will be more than glad to meet you, a new kind of man, everyone knows you created FiMFiction, these plushies shows who males can be good at the "soft arts". Just be seeing them makes me feel huggly. Treasure them forever, im sure you will have something in return.

How do you sew the heads on so neatly? Whenever I try you I have way too many see able stitches

thurinus In reply to Latenate [2013-03-05 04:52:48 +0000 UTC]

The pile of minky actually helps hide my less-than-stellar hand-stitching. I assume you're having trouble hiding stitches on non-fuzzy fabric?
