Aprils past
Mon, 07 Apr 2025
I've been working on cleaning up the blog archives, which have been through a couple of software changes and so have some weirdness in older entries.
Some "blogs" are really just magazines, with hopefully-timeless articles that they can just re-run now and then. Mine? Not so much. My article-type entries tend to get rolled into Tutorials and the like. But sometimes it's worth reviewing old posts, so here are some flashbacks.
This time in 2019, I was Revisiting the Tiny Beanie Dragon, which got sold in my shop for quite some time. It acquired a neck and became the Plush Dragon Design which also needs revisited.
I was also getting into the 3D stuff, and that was the dawn of the Orcas!. That's was the 3D freebie, though I am going to replace it with the 4x4 size from the Minimalist Frog because the Chibi Orca requires a bit too much careful matching for a first-time design.
I was also doing the In-the-hoop Pug Plush which, Past Me is starting to scare me. That's now the Flopsy Pug (and Flopsy Frenchie). How much did I get done that month, compared to nowadays?
On top of the (mostly-)finished designs there, I was doing a lot of Prototyping in the Hoop.
Let's look at 2020.
Oh, one blog post. Gee, I wonder why things were so quiet here in the fourth month of 2020? I did make some Chocolate bunnies which I had completely forgotten about, which is probably good because then I'd've been super-overthinking my own Kawaii Bunnies. I will admit they look much the same but I promise, they are just the natural extension of the kawaii critter base I use.
Okay, on the average I guess I'm doing just fine?
I do need to get to the basement and wrap up the sliceform Cactus, though.
