My dog Kaneda got hurt. She tried to jump on the sofa and missed and landed on her back. We had to take her to the vet and got x-rays. Luckily she did not fractured her disk. So now she is taking pain killers and staying in the kitchen for two weeks. The vet said that she needs to take it easy for a while or it could get worse. Poor baby.

I will only have four slots open at a time. Their will be a 5 slot waiting
list. First come first serve. If the first four people decide not to
commission me I will let the people in the waiting list know.  


ITEMS and PRICES
Prices may vary depending on which plush and the amount of detail you want.
Here is an idea on how much they might be from simple to detailed plushies.
All prices are USD$.



Chibi: $15-$20


Big Chibi: $20-$30


PALS: $20-$30


lil'pals: $10-$20


Wrist pincushions: $7-$10


Pincushions: $6-$8


Small Pincushions: $5-$7


Other: note me



NOTE: If you want a re-make let me know. I might not have that same fabric
anymore but I might have something close to it. Also I hold the right to say
no to any requests, sorry. But it doesn't hurt to ask.

SHIPPING
Depends on how big the item is and where its going to. Anything sent outside
the US will take longer to arrive. Most of the time it takes 2-4 weeks.

5-7"

Everywhere Else: $5

under 5"
US: $2
Canada: $2.50
Everywhere Else: $4

PAYMENT
I will accept only paypal for now. You must send me a 50% non-refundable down-payment
so I know you are serious about this commission. This will guarantee you a spot and I will
not start your plush until I have the down-payment. The rest will be paid when I finish your item.  

COMMISSION ME
1. Please send me a note with the following info
~Type of plushie.
~Refrance photos if needed
~Your location

2. I will note you back with a quote and how long
it will take to finish it.

start on your item.

4. When your commission in complete, I will send you
a photo of it to see if you approve.

5. Once you approve, please send your final payment. I
will send your item when I receive the final payment.


Let me know if you have any other questions!

I been sewing a lot lately. This is what I been up to.

I made some business cards and my dear cousin gave me some awesome cute turtle fabric and I made me a little card holder. I found this awesome tutorial:[link] from Quilted Cupcake. I kinda broke my sewing machine needle doing this. I guess my fabric was to thick for it but it's all fixed now.



I also made a very cozy pouch for Chester (sis and my ferret). He is going to love it! I made it so it can be reversible. Its suppose to be dark purple and black but it looks blue in the picture.



Also, any Facebook people out there? I just made a new page for my shop. Please become my fan here:[link] !
Oh, I got a 96% on my first exam on my Math for Teachers class. I'm so happy!! You don't understand I haven't done any math for 3 years!! So I am very rusty. well, that is all for now.

Well, the year is almost over. I'm welcoming the new year with open arms!!
I'm so excited for the new year. I already drew up some new ideas. Hopefully
i don't get lazy this time. My New Year's resolutions are: don't be lazy, do good
in school (going back to school and very nerves!), finish up the art trades I have
pending (I'm so sorry guys!!), maybe do some commissions, and have a baby.

Here is my 2009 Art Summary:



I hope everybody has a wonderful New Year!!

Just because I love Christmas! No matter what mood I am in Christmas makes me so happy. I'm a Christian so I believe the story of Jesus and how God gave His most precious gift to us. But you don't have to be religious to want to help people or give a gift to someone special. I want to thank y'all for all the comments, fav's and watches! I would love to give everyone of you a gift but if I do that I'll probably die on my sewing machine. So I'm making a Christmas Kiriban!!


Just screen cap my 50,000 pageview and the fist person who notes me with the link will get this special plush: [link]

p.s. I have 121 new watcher!! Thank you!!

First I want to thank all the people that left an encouraging comment
on my last journal. Thank you, it meant a lot to me. I love yall!!

I'm doing really good physically. I started sewing again. I made a lil'bunny:[link]
while I was gone. I went to my parents house for Thanksgiving. It was a very nice
Thanksgiving. I hope every one (that celebrates thanksgiving) had a good one too.

Christmas is around the corner! I love Christmas!! I'm thinking of making a
Christmas Kiriban. Details to come soon.

I found out Wed that my baby had passed away. I went in for my 16wk OB appointment and the doc couldn't find the heartbeat. They did a couple of ultra sounds and found out that the baby stopped growing at 14wks. I'm home right now and ok. I would be lying if I said I'm feeling fine. I been crying. It's just really hard since it was my first pregnancy and my husband and I were really excited. I know God has His reasons and now my baby is in a better place now.

I will be taking a little break. Don't be upset if i don't answer all your comments and questions fast but I do promise to read all of them. I will be checking my DA from time to time.

OK! So I think I got it! YAY!! I donno, what do y'all think about the new journal?
N-E-WAYS.
I know I haven't up dated. Sorry guys. I really want to but every time I get up to
do something I feel nauseous. I hate it. Nothing looks good anymore. My husband
wanted to take me out to eat to any place I wanted but as you can imagine I didn't
feel like eating anything.....blah. I have so many ideas. Hopefully I start getting
better since this week I am 3months pregnant! Here is the ultra sound I took
last week. You can now see the little head and body.

yes....i'n not dead yet. It has been really busy for me. I went back to work last month then i found out i was pregnant!! Yep, m hubby and I are expecting our first baby. Well, I was 5wk when I found out I was preggers. Then when i was 6wk I had to go to the emergency room. The doctors kept telling me that i might loose the baby. This Monday i had an ultrasound and found out that the baby is ok. We even got to hear and see the little baby's heartbeat! We were so relived! The doc said i needed rest and they will keep an eye on me. I have two more appointments this month. So I had to take a leave of absence from work.

Now that i'm not working, i will have time to get back to my sewing! YAY!
I did miss all of yall!

Since i was away i had 132 new watchers!! thank you to all y new watcher!!

I also have training on Mon Tue and Wed morning and have work in the evening......sigh.

anyways love yall and thank you for all the comments, favs and watches!!

WOW!! I'm so sorry I haven't updated or up loaded anything. Lately my kids at work have been taking all my creativity away! Everyday they ask me to draw something for them or we have an art project to work on. This week is flower pots for mother's day. By the time i get home all my creativity juices are super low and i don't feel like making anything. So from now on i have to work on my crafts before i go to work. For the people i still owe art trades I'm so sorry for the long delay! I haven't forgotten about you. I will get to them soon. Right now I'm working on ~littlepaperforest art trade and a new pattern white bunny.

Thank you for your patience!!
Love y'all!

~LoRi

i just wanted to say thank you to all the people that wished me a Happy Birthday!!! THANX!! love yall!! s

also i'm leaving tonight. i'm going to visit my family in Mexico for a week. yep i have a lot of family!!! I will be back next monday.

i know i haven't posted anything. i'm actually working on ~littlepaperforest art trade. is taking me longer than i thought, sorry. i wont be working on it during my vacation because i always take stuff to work on and it ends up staying in my suitcase through the whole trip! so i decided not to work on anything while i'm way so i can save on suitcase space.

well, guys i'll see you later and i'll write back as soon as i get back. love yall and take care!! s

LoRi
