Arlecchino Plushie
I have played Genshin Impact exactly once and I was terrible at it, so I don’t actually get what this plushie means, but it was what my niece’s girlfriend asked for for her birthday, so I made it.

Huge thanks to Choly Knight, who has amazing free patterns, two of which I combined and adapted to create this. Then I immediately bought one of her books!
Terastal Form Terapagos
This year for Christmas, my nephew asked for a stuffie terastal form Teragos, because he has been playing the Indigo Disk DLC for Pokémon Scarlet and Violet.

I’m quite pleased with how this one turned out, especially all the appliqués on the shell.
Trobbio
This is my nephew dressed as Trobbio from Hollow Knight: Silksong. Hollow Knight: Silksong is notably not yet released, so this is a character he knows about only from the trailers.

He also dressed as a character from Hollow Knight: Silksong in 2021, so you can tell how long he has been anxiously awaiting the release of this game!
The Phantom Planet cross stitch
This is a quote from The Phantom Planet, a delightful episode of Mystery Science Theater 3000, which I made for my friend.
This is a quote from The Phantom Planet, a delightful episode of Mystery Science Theater 3000, which I made for my friend. The design is based on the poster from the movie. The best part is that I initially stitched it as “attentioin” and had to pick it out so I could spell “attention” correctly.
Fidough

It’s a pretty complicated shape. I think it turned out pretty well, but its head is so much bigger than the body that it keels over forward whenever you put it down.
Ceruledge
Ceruledge is a new Pokémon in Pokémon Violet. Since Violet didn’t release until November, this marks the second Halloween in a row for which my nephew has dressed as a character from an as-yet unreleased video game.

Most of the armor is foam sheets. The swords are foam core so they would nice and light for him to carry.
Empress of Light
My niece went as the Empress of Light from Terraria for Halloween this year.
My niece went as the Empress of Light from Terraria for Halloween this year. We had to simplify the costume a bit because I didn’t have as much time to work on it as I would have liked, so it’s all store-bought clothes except for the crown and the wings. The wings are an aluminum frame lined with color-changing LEDs with nylons stretched over them.
Stuffed Capybara
It’s not quite life size, but it is pretty close.

Hollow Knight: Silksong
My nephew is eagerly awaiting the release of Hollow Knight: Silksong, so he wanted to be this character that he saw in the trailer, even though we don’t know their name or anything about them.

Hollow Knight Halloween
For Halloween, my nephew wanted to be the Knight from the video game Hollow Knight. Then it turned into a family affair, with my niece as the Pure Vessel, my sister as the White Lady, and my brother-in-law as the Pale King.

Ghostie
Another giant stuffie for my nephew! This year, he wanted the ghost from the video game Forager. It's very soft and squishy and perhaps a little larger than I expected it to be.

Yiga Blademaster Halloween costume
This Halloween, I made my nephew a Yiga Blademaster costume from Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. It’s made from two body suits sewn together, with accents of faux leather, craft foam, and feathers. The windcleaver sword is made of poplar.

Taco Pillow
My nephew asked for a taco pillow for Christmas. I think I did a good job delivering on the request, even though we both agree that it turned out rather larger than we expected.

Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Thunderspears

The blade is painted poplar with inset EL wire embedded in resin so that it can light up like the spear in the game. The shaft is a Martha Stewart curtain rod. Please enjoy their dramatic poses.
