I finally finished my needle felt plush doll of Sugilite from Steven Universe.
It is fully posable and it’s the heaviest doll I’ve ever made. As much wool went into this one as all the rest of my SU dolls put together!
Little comparison shot I took while I was working. I’ve come a long way with faces in the last few months!
Just another free bird who flew too high and loved too deep.
Bird Person from Rick and Morty was a real challenge. The request specified that he had to fit in with an existing collection of 6″ action figures, and that’s a lot of detail to cram in! I drew blood from multiple fingertips for this one.
Bonus behind the scenes shot showing an important part of my creative process. Even if it’s going to end up under multiple layers of sheet felt where nobody will ever see it, I don’t consider my work complete without a lovingly handcrafted butt.
Different angle this time so you can see my messy workshop
Goat mom!
I made Toriel extra fuzzy and filled her with pillow stuffing, no wires or pipe cleaners.
Huggability was the first priority, but I’m really pleased with how her face turned out. I think it’s the best doll I’ve ever made.
Sans is extremely tiny, smaller than I was intending to make him, actually. I ran out of wool and had to improvise!
I really love Bruce Timm’s DC cartoons for their art deco aesthetic, and no character personified that more than Hawkgirl.
Last one’s for the Zepp fans out there.
Oh my, Mr. Fingers, it’s lovely to see you today. And you’ve brought a friend, how delightful!
He certainly seems to be a jolly fellow.
These Salad Fingers dolls are part of a commission, and they were really fun to work on. Salad Fingers is a cartoon series created by David Firth and it is wonderful and horrifying.
I admit that the hat looks kind of janky, but it was important that it be removable for obvious reasons.
Without it, Dipper is exactly one millimeter shorter than Mabel.
Just to prove to myself that I can do more than just Steven Universe stuff, I made two knuckleheads and a crappy little bullshit man.
I’m trying something new with pipe cleaner skeletons. Have a weird megaman-looking thing.

More felties:
Undertale | Steven Universe | Gravity Falls | Rick and Morty | Everything else
I had to make these ones the same night, because I couldn’t have them be apart for too long.
Obviously I had to make Garnet later that same week.
Come on, Pearl, join everybody else at the party.
Pearl… Pearl, no. That’s worse. Okay, there we go.
This was one of the first dolls I ever made, and she just looked so sad that I just couldn’t look at her any more, so I remade her face. I also added pipe cleaners to her arms and legs for posability.
My first attempt at felting. I am great at felting, it turns out.
