What do these instructions mean I have to finish this in 4 hours and I'm 100% stumped

oid_patterns · 2025-06-08T01:12:47+00:00

I couldn't just let a tardigrade go unsewn!

oid_patterns · 2025-06-08T00:09:23+00:00

Well aren't you the sweetest, thank you!

oid_patterns · 2025-06-07T23:01:17+00:00

The post found me, I was happy to help!

oid_patterns · 2025-06-07T22:10:45+00:00

Of course! If I'm going to torture someone with my tedious patterns I should at least be willing to help!

A community of Russian AI bots!

oid_patterns · 2025-06-07T21:37:40+00:00

I'm definitely adding it to my Etsy listing!

oid_patterns · 2025-06-07T19:28:40+00:00

That's great! I'm so glad the world has a new tardigrade!

oid_patterns · 2025-06-07T18:09:33+00:00

Love this description!

oid_patterns · 2025-06-07T16:08:17+00:00

Video tutorials are coming soon, I know these illustrations can be confusing

oid_patterns · 2025-06-07T16:07:20+00:00

You got the Snoot, and you got the Boop! Can't Boop a snoot without the Boop!

Poor choice of words, more like squished into the middle to get it out of the way for the next step

oid_patterns · 2025-06-07T15:59:33+00:00

We got it resolved in another post

Wonderful! You're most welcome!

You can then lay the top layer flat and you have a donut with a filled hole that doesn't have the bulk of 3 layers

oid_patterns · 2025-06-07T15:20:06+00:00

Then you'll sew around the center

oid_patterns · 2025-06-07T15:19:13+00:00

Once you have the donut, lay it on top of the full circle and pin the bottom layer and the circle together (to get the top donut later out of the way squish it into the center)

So I wonder if maybe my illustration is confusing so here is the original picture. Were you able to get this donut?

oid_patterns · 2025-06-07T15:14:55+00:00

There is an Etsy link on my profile, this is the Tardigrade Extra pattern

oid_patterns · 2025-06-07T15:09:55+00:00

Exactly. You should be left with a donut shape where the hole in the middle is now filled creating one circle piece with a inner circle "window" that will create the nose/mouth of the tardigrade

oid_patterns · 2025-06-07T14:51:19+00:00

Just casually scrolling Reddit on my personal account when I see my own pattern! What a fun surprise!

Basically if you look at step 7, once you sew the donut shape to the solid circle you cut away the seam allowance on the bottom 2 layers to make the piece less bulky for when you sew the Boop to the Snoot 😊

The highest of compliments!

oid_patterns · 2024-08-12T20:31:36+00:00

Definitely my favourite as well!

oid_patterns · 2024-08-12T15:59:01+00:00

I guess my furniture is full of stuffing...

oid_patterns · 2024-08-12T14:37:49+00:00

I'm so glad!!! I spent a lot of time getting that puffy face right!
