holy crap, so many dinosaurs






i feel like for the past week or so i've done nothing but think about, make, & even wear dinosaurs...which is kind of awesome. To start with, i received perhaps the single most amazing item ever mailed: my custom dinosaur dress by isleofmuse. i also got a convo to my etsy shop requesting a custom stuffed orange Plesiosaur. Do to the specifications of the request i had to rework my pattern a little bit, which was something of a challenge. i consider the resulting pile of Plesiosaur to be my best attempt at plush-making so far.
But then i started thinking (which has a tendency to lead to some sort of wondrous nonsense) , if i can make a larger dinosaur, mayhaps i can make a smaller one too. Thus Mortimer the citrisaurus came to be. Mortimer is a palm sized brontosaurus, who enjoys reading, foliage, & crumpets. He is the lime dino in a soon to be complete lemon-lime dinosaur set. The dainty dinosaur between Mortimer & the Orange-osaurus is Alice, who you may recall from a previous post.

i'm thinking my next creature will be a stegosaurus. yes.
