Patchy in Japan 🤡

I just wanna get a little sappy here for a moment. When I was a small child opening up the yearly New Years package my cousins would send our grandma from Japan I dreamed of this. I dreamed of one day being there and buying all these cute kawaii characters and plushies. I dreamed of making my own silly little characters and plushies. As a teen going to Anime and Comic Cons I dreamed of one day making art and tabling at them. I deeply wished to be a part of the things that brought me so much joy.

These past few years have been amazing. Finally getting over the fear of being perceived and trying to put myself out there, learning all sorts of new skills, and getting to experience thing my child self dreamed of.

Thank you everyone who has been a part of my life these past few years. Every one of you who has become my friends in the artist alley, or have come to cons or markets and told me how cute you think my creations are, and everyone who has joined our @sillylilguys.club 🪱 and has found community. It means so much to me. I have some really cool things coming I promise!

I love you all, and if you read all this I love you the mostest. Please tell me some of your childhood dreams ʕ⁠ ⁠ꈍ⁠ᴥ⁠ꈍ⁠ʔ

Working on some new designs. Been wanting to make a garden eel since i saw them at the Nagoya Sealife Aquarium. I finally had the time to. Thinking of making a Silly Sea Creatures line. Maybe a mantaray, a shrimp, an olive founder and hmmm what else 🤔 any suggestions let me know

My last art fight attack for 2026 🙂‍↕️
Plushie of @jaetato 's Baloon Dog Dog using machine embroidery, hand sewing and crochet.
I have a magnet of him on my fridge and when I saw them join art fight I had to try and make a plushie.

Keeping myself entertained while boycotting be like...

(Yes i did even print the backdrop out 🫣)

Can you imagine, i started playing for the claw machine but I stayed for the boys. I will say 100% that the game has the best claw machine mini game out of any game I've played.

(I cant find the machine/shop to tag on Instagram but it's from a shop called Showcase in Canada)

Its Sunny Apple! 🍎
Why does he always look so grumpy 🤔
Anyways I'm not a Caleb girlie but this one is def my favourite one to make. The cream apple centre feels so satisfying to cut and stitch out.
