Critters!!

So Maile and Aster.....just in case these two don't make the plane ride I figured I'd better show you pictures of your two (not so little) critters...







He has two veeeeery long tentacles so that he can truly wrap around anyone a few times over!



How can you resist those eyes?





And this one. Not bad for my first big plushie attempt and making up my own pattern ^__^









And flat feet so that he will sit nice and flat and be squishable and floppy! The floppiness also allows one to curve him around their body.


Both are made from Microplush so everyone here just goes by and pets them. The cats are a little jealous >_>;

And I have learned a lot from the chocobo so the next one that I am going to make will be better, although Maile's will always be my baby cause it was my first...

And, my dad is picking me up tonight. I do a bit of running around tommorrow in Toronto and then catch a plane early Saturday morning and then am under Maile's care until the convention! It's going to be a very interesting week. Will probably go back through emails and comments once I'm in Toronto tonight and make sure I get caught up to date before I leave. But now, to try and pack my stuff as well as those two critters into one suitcase. Delmar is grateful he gets to come in the carry-on.

AAAAAAAAAAW! Oh man, they are so adorable! Chico is HUGE. Were you thinking of bringing them on the plane? o_O I can't imagine Chico being anything but a checked bag all on his own. And they've started REALLY charging for extra bags.... I just don't want you to get hit with more baggage fees than it would have been to just ship them here. ^_^

SO CUTE! They look so squishy and lovable! <3!

Chico can just squiswh into my big suitcase with my prints and Squiggles is joing Delmar in the carry-on. It is a very good thing that I don't own many clothes ^^;

But I can't wait to give Squiggles to you! Although, at the same time, it will be sad to part with them ;__;

I guess they are pretty squishy, but still! :) I uh...will be very amused to see the look on the x-ray guy's face when you send your suitcase through and it's....filled with squishy chocobo. :)

I'm so excited to see him! Squishy tentacle monster! And I bid on a "fantastic animal of your choice" plushie for the Live Long and Marry auction, and didn't win, but the maker said that if I wanted to foot the cost, she'd put me in the queue, so I asked for a plushie that was soft and squishy and had tentacles. So Squiggles will have a playmate! ^___^

Oh dear, Squiggles with a playmate....that will be interesting indeed. Just be careful or one day you'll come back to a whole room of mini critters!

And yes, between Delmar, tentacle monsters and Chocobos, I think I'll have the most interesting luggage going!
