BIG UPDATE MAY 2017 - FurDU, Commissions and the next year..
8 years ago
Hey everyone! So FurDU is now over and its time for a BIG update thingy. Will be covering post FurDU things, commission updates, and whats coming in the next 12 months.
This is gonna be long so feel free to skip to areas you want to know about.

FurDU:
So first things first, I want to thank everyone who came by my table at Furry Down Under this past weekend to support me. Everyone who purchased something or even just took a business card means so damn much to me.
I also want to thank all the amazing friends who supported me leading up to this con (especially changesdaskunk dude idk what I'd have done without you the last couple months).
I might not have done as well as I hoped I would (due to fabric not arriving and maybe just not having what people are interested in) but i have 12 months to get ready for the next FurDU and make sure my table is bigger and better. I also will be skipping dealing at Confurgence so I have the entire time until FurDU next year to prep now.
So please throw suggestions at me at what merch types you'd like so see, not just plush!

Commissions and Commissioners!
So now that the con season is over for me its time to jump into commissions. I have two Pre-FurDU commissions that couldn't be done before hand (a patch and a badge) to finish up and post out so those will be done first and foremost while I wait for supplies for everything else.
I also will note here that I am taking my embroidery/sewing machine in for a service this week as it has not had one yet. This will put a delay in the last patch and my commissions but I am sorry. It HAS to be done this week or I run the risk of damaging the machine beyond repair.
But I did do well enough at FurDU that I hope I will be able to pick up a new sewing machine by the end of the month which means I will be working even faster!
I have 4 fairly large plush commissions to do so that will take up the bulk of my time, I will be working on my pouch commissions in between and/or before I start these (simply because the fabric for most of the pouch commissions I got is in stock)
Once I finish these custom pouches I will post the link to the form to order them publicly. I will probably stay open for pouch commissions for a long while as they are fun and quick to do.
If you are a commissioner and have any questions please let me know!

The next 12 months...
As for the future... I dont know. There are alot of things going on in my personal life but I am trying not to let them effect my work too much.
The good news is though that I am busy applying for an emergency dispatcher job here in Brisbane (so dispatching police/fire/ambulance services when people call 000) so wish me luck as it will help me get the extra money I need. Though it may slow me down a little, I am hoping not too much with the way rosters work in that field.
I am also saving as much as I can to move to Melbourne within the next 12-14 months ideally. This is so that I can leave the personally issues here behind and be closer to my support network of amazing friends.

Hope this wasn't too annoying to read and I hope you're all okay. Thank you again for supporting me!
