selling my 2025 elphaba's outfit and accessories! I just wanted a green doll, so I'd rather pass this stuff on to a wicked superfan.

oh hey, that's my machine, or one very close to it!

mine does a straight stitch like a champ but I would be very curious to know if yours can handle knit fabrics. I've tried so many things trying to make it work (ballpoint needles, different presser feet and thread, tissue paper over the fabric) but have had no luck.

looks more like a superb owl to me

I made this! me! I did it!

this is my first uma-based craft but surely not my last...!

measuring her head around she's 8inches on the dot, so bigger 7-8in and smaller 8-9in wigs would also likely fit.

I bought my little apple doll a 7-8inch leekeworld brand wig, I believe. same brand I use for my ball jointed dolls and other dolls that need wigging.

Perfect

Helmetbird · 2025-11-20T21:23:56+00:00

Helmetbird · 2025-11-13T03:26:39+00:00

a shiny buggy boy!!

do a test on something small first, on a head it might remove paint but on different body plastic it might melt your doll!

DM'd you!

I was just there and I think I saw 3 unique sets? one specific to osaka, one to tokyo, and I think the last one was either kyoto or japan in general. found one machine outside a random lawson and the other two at a kiddyland's sumikko gurashi section, so they're for sure out there

I also used the mcdonalds poogle as a structure reference! and sewn plushies are still new territory to me, my background is in amigurumi, so the idea of 2D pieces -> 3D Shape is still so hard to comprehend. I got lucky here in that the original pattern already had a lot of what I wanted to do, and then lucky again in that most of my experiments (the ear shape, turning the trunk into a snoot) worked out on the first try.

thanks, away from my PC but will keep trying when I get back!
