Static White's Stitchery

Okay, lots of stops and starts this past week. I have also just started studying for what hopefully will be a new (additional) career. Unfortunately, since I've been trying to figure out what works best in getting both studying and sewing done, I have only finished two days worth of 365-worthy stuff. The good news is that I think I've figured out how not to exhaust or stress myself out doing both.

Anywho, now for the good stuff. This cutie pie was a test doll to work out the kinks of what I have in mine for my gaggle of nieces this Christmas. I customized it to my taste since I'm keeping it. Here is my 13" tall Cutie Vamp Doll.

The ones for my nieces will not have fangs or bat dresses but you get the idea. The next ones will be twice as large, and will be fleece where this one is felt for the most part. They'll also be all machine stitched except for detailed bits. I'd never finish if I had to sew them all by hand!

This is counting as two days because the doll body was done one day and the dress was redrafted and sewn the next available stitchy day.

Well, time for me to get studying! Yay?

Well I got a little behind but not really. Maybe by a day. I unfortunately forgot to snap a pic of a recent item before I sent it off so I'll just have to make up for it in the next few days, right? Right. Anywho here's the latest batch of stitchy goodness...

Top row: Creepy Carnie Conversations, Dusty Catacombs, Vampire Kisses
Mid L: Hey Little Sister v2
Bottom L & R: The Roses are Red Red Red, Tumbling Cats

Looks like Batlings are starting to slowly flap their way onto my work space. The latest arrival is a smirky little Red Batling with Black and White zebra striped wings and Golden Yellow eyes.

Thanks so much to everyone that entered ♥. Stay tuned, you never know what I'll giveaway next!

Because of the giveaway I got a bit behind on 365 posts but not on creating!

 

This is Nyateshi, an angel cat who got the heavenly boot for his unseemly behavior towards females. Naughty Nyateshi! As you can see he even misplaced his halo.

 

I also finished up the second winners Nyanpire and made another for good measure.

If you don't know the anime, just search for Nyanpire. It's ridiculously cute.

Oh, did I not mention that if I got over 100 entries I'd make another Nyanpire? I guess it was just one of those things that came up in my brain but never made it past my finger tips. It just makes it that much more of a surprise, right? Right. So I had random.org chose a second winner, too! Yay!

Much thanks to everyone that entered and spread the word. We'll have to do this again sometime real soon. Leave a comment about what you'd maybe like to see in the next giveaway. I'm always happy to hear suggestions.

Today I stitched up a anime Nyanpire!

I did a reverse applique on the ears and the wings are made of glittered felt for a little contrast on this all black sweetie. Everything is hand stitched, of course. Isn't he just the cutest with his big round blood-lusting eyes?

xx ~Static

I'm feeling a little Halloween-y today so I stitched up an Orange Batling with sparkly Black wings and Golden Yellow glass eyes.

This one's got a bit of an underbite but it can still nibble your fingers and toes just fine! Not really. Or, could it?

xx ~Static

Yes! I got the Purple winged Nyanpire done.

I also took and edited some photos this morning which means I also got some listings posted. Here' one of the silly, fun pics...

Kittenstein vs Nyanpire!! Who will win?

xx ~Static

Nyan-nyan! (Meow-meow!)

I am the night!

Yeah, yeah, you are the night. I swear these little guys don't have anything else to say. There will be another Nyanpire with purple wings shortly but I have to finish a Grumpy Neko first. Woo!

xx ~Static

And, yet another Grumpy Neko.

Don't get me wrong, I love making them but I need to make some other things before I get to the point of not liking to make them anymore, you know?

I'm thinking make a few more Nyanpires...

Color suggestions are welcome!

xx ~Static

I just couldn't help myself and created another Nyanpire.

Looks like he's happily presenting the beginnings of my other work, some custom dolls. Thank you, little Nyanpire, you are too kind.

xx ~Static

Oh dear, it seems my nekos have gone vampire! Yet another adorably fanged Nyanpire has turned up on my table.

A tuxedo kitty with red sparkly wings, what's not to love?

xx ~Static

Today things didn't go quite right. There were errands to run but closures and overbooking got in the way. Le sigh. Although, I did get a fancy new backpack! So there's that plus. I also made this absolutely friggin' adorable (if I do say so myself) Nyanpire! Otherwise known as a BatCat...

Don't you just want to squeeze the stuffing out of it? So stinking cute.

Ow! Don't bite! Okay-okay, "you are the night", Nyanpire. I got it. Sorry. Sheesh, now I need a bandaid.

xx ~Static

I put the finishing touches on the chibi version of Vic Fuentes of Pierce the Veil! Yes, that is who I was turning into a cute, adorable, little chibi doll. The doll even has a nose ring like Vic!

[Pic updated to include the addition of awesome shag hair]

This black hearted Batling also turned up...

Sheesh, everybody's got to get their picture with chibi-Vic now? Good thing chibi-Vic is going to his new home soon. I've got critters piddling themselves and swooning all over the place. Who's gotta clean up after them? Not chibi-Vic. Hmph.

xx ~Static

I made another Valentine Batling for a trade (the other one sold!) and tried to make a chibi voodoo doll.

I'm not totally pleased with the voodoo doll though. I need to think about it some more. Maybe different colors? Hmm...

xx ~Static

More Valentine Batling Keychain Plush!

The white one makes me think of Honduran white bats. Yes, there are white bats! Super cute little powder puffs that hang out under big jungle leaves.

These cute critters will be up in my shop in a couple days. Color requests are welcome!

Now what to make tomorrow...

~Static

A Valentine Batling with more on the way!

Overlord of all he surveys! Which is honestly not much from his thready perch but he seems fine with it.

Inspired by the colors of Nadja's Robot ♥.

Be on the lookout for him in my shop. This cutey will come on a ballchain so you can put him on your keyring, have him ride along on your bag strap, or just hang around as an adorable ornament.

2013 has gotten off to a good start. I've decided to endeavor to create at least one thing a day, every day of 2013. What should I call it? Create 365? Another upside to doing a 365 is I'll post here more often. Yay!... Yay? Oh boy. No, no I can do this!

I was going to try this last year but well, you know, excuses.

Anyway, to start off the year I stitched up a baker's dozen of limited edition headbands! I did them over a couple days but I'm counting them all as day #1 since that's when I finished and listed them so nyah.

Left Column (top to bottom): Tumbling Cats - Purple Turq, Creepy Carnie Conversations, Dancing Skeletons in the Fog, Happy Ghosts in the Attic

Middle Column: Black Cat in the Garden, Victorian Lady, Three Witches, Aztec Dreams, Black Cat in the Garden at Night

Right Column: Candied Flowers, Dancing Skeletons, Creepy Conversations, Tumbling Cats - Purple Black

♦♦♦♦    ♦♦♦♦    ♦♦♦♦    ♦♦♦♦

A random few from the above pic are already listed with more going up tonight and tomorrow. I try to spread out my listings so more people browsing Etsy will see them. But you, my fabulous fiends, get the sneak peek!

If there's one you want that hasn't been listed yet just convo me on Etsy and I'll happily list and reserve it (24hrs) for you. Sold out? Want a different fabric combo? Just ask and I'll happily see what I can do.

Also, after the 15th, there will be an upward price change. I was going to do it this week but I'd like to give my faithful fans a chance to grab their faves at the lower price.

Hope you all had a fantastic New Year's Eve! Here's to a amazing 2013 *raises coffee cup*! xx ~Static
