Sorry (not sorry), but this ACTUAL seamstress calls BS. First off, this is an AI image. Notice the complete lack of shadows/depth, no seams, and eerily perfect folds on that extremely narrow pile of fabric in the background. Go see the “Page” and It’s ALL the Exact Same Text with even worse fake AI slop every post (gee, Awful hard to sew with no Power cords or Foot Pedals or scissors with both the blades or worklights or actual table space… even for a photo setup, it makes no sense at all). Just a single copypasted response to EVERY comment no matter what was said. A rambling bio that doesn’t make any sense, or have an ounce of personality. A “modeler” before a maker/sewist/designer/seamstress or anything that actually MAKES things. An impossible amount of posts per day for an actual maker. A “model“ that literally never moves or changes clothes. And the “shop” links call it crochet (which does not require a sewing machine and fabric.) 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

Second, you’re not making 50 a day on that tiny domestic machine for something that’s quilted, lined, magically made with no patterns, and has a drawstring channel. My own record for *much* simpler drawstring bags than that, with factory style technique that’s specifically set up for speed so I can pump out as much as possible in a workday, alone, is 20. If you’re making anything more Elaborate than that, literally not possible without an actual factory and multiple Employees.

50 a day of literally Everything posted (precisely 50, never 49 or 51, hmmm?) will buy you a house? Well if that was true I’d be a property mogul by now. Oh, wait a minute- the other blatantly AI slop pages that infect Facebook now all say the exact same thing too! Maybe if you ACTUALLY mean making 50 images a day of the fake slop that you use to scam people with so you don't have to do any real work. 😂😂😂😂

This *actual* artist will NEVER be okay with the existence of AI for precisely this reason. AI could be doing the crummy jobs nobody wants to do, but no, let’s just scam people and make it impossible for real artists and makers to be seen over the AI slop, stolen posts and overt spam while *also* stealing all of our f*ing work to generate this s**t.

I make 50 pieces a day. And I'm selling them all, I bought a house thanks to this job. It is very easy and fast to make. -kerime

Apologies for the quiet, Squidizens- all the winter shows were a flop that didn't happen this season, so I haven't had much to do (besides handmade Xmas presents, and I can't show those yet!).
My shop is still closed and will probably be switched to a new platform in the coming months so I can start selling normally online again. (any Canadian or European/international orders, please PM or email me directly, folks who live in the KW/Guelph or Stratford areas can have free delivery to their homes or pickup at mine!)
In the meanwhile, time to do some long-needed album updates.
Also, this is an annual reminder to my fellow nerds to not let wassailing Ice Cubes into your house.

Renfaire-exclusive special accesories- Rock-in Hood and Maid Marblian!

This one has already sold, but so quickly that we will happily make another. Meet Dune! A dragon of the desert sands, his hoard is precious drops of water. Made of camel and chocolate minky with brilliant blue embroidery accents.

Part 7, the finale!
Oh, this is useless! Flappy is never going to get settled down to hibernate. It’s too loud, too crowded, too bright, and he’s had far too much faire food. So…. tired… of… preparing…. 🥱🥱😴
(…Turns out Flappy just needed to tire himself out! Wrapped snugly up in maker human’s poncho on his return, he finally fell fast asleep for winter.)

Part 6!
Darn it, still no sleep! All those stuffed dragons made the cave too hot and smoky. Time to find another new roost…. But perhaps a nice warm bath to get him settled to sleep first? The mermaid certainly recommended it if he can’t winter down in the nice warm tropics like they do.

Part 5!
Suitably equipped with tea, now, Flappy went to go find some nice cuddly bedding to get comfortable with for that long winter sleep. A veritable bevy of stuffies! Just like his own roost when he was a little pup. Who knew dragons also hibernated?

Part 4!

Blast, he can’t sleep in a boisterous crowd like this! They kept waking him up by throwing snacks at him! Maybe a hot cup of herbal tea to get him settled down…. And the vendors at ITR Creations wisely suggested he get a whole bag to keep him cozy through the winter.
