#beanbag frog

[picayunetown]

And, now that I have run out of plastic pellets, my experiments with beanbag frogs are complete! What a ride it has been. I think Fleur is my favorite overall but they all came out pretty cute in their own ways.

From left to right: Intense Beaded Gaze, KABAJ, Fleur, Hoppy Part-Green Frog, and Celeste Frog.

As August is not over I may return to JUDGY FROGS, since they are stuffed instead of bean-bagg'd. We'll see.

So, as threatened, I looked through my remnants and picked out the worst floral fabric I had. I actually narrowed it down to three - there are a lot of dire fabrics out there - but, in the end, Gigantic Hallucinogenic Cabbage Roses won out. It was a close race, let me tell you. I also had 70s Mustard-Yellow Wallpaper and Weird Metallic Gold Bits.

Unfortunately the size of the remnant and the size of the frog made it such that the sheer size and horror of these cabbage roses is not really... visible. Oh, well.

I sewed up his webbing on the machine this time and I like how that turned out. Unfortunately I also used up the last of my beanbag pellets and did not quite have enough, so this last fellow is extra floppy.

I have duly named him KABAJ and he will join the others! As always, he was adapted from this free beanbag frog pattern.

I also poked in the sides of Fleur's nose and decided I liked how it looked, so I gave her a quick needle-and-thread rhinoplasty.

Ah, Frogust.
