Metro Mints

I thought I was going to be having a peaceful month at home, just playing around with some sculpey clay, making xmas decor and cookies   like a good wife and such...
instead here I am... 

I bartered 50 custom 4 inch peppermint plushies for a 3d resin printer +.  Have no idea how to use a 3d printer, but it will be an interesting adventure for a later time.  Imma be honest, after the 30th plushie it was a struggle trying to finish the last 20. But  pushed through and fulfilled our agreement .   

The label reads "Metro Fire"  They will be used as part of the holiday decor for the fire department my husband works at.  (I also made him a mini gingerbread baby and a gingerbread dog - didn't get a chance to take pix before he took them away). He will probably pass these out as gifts afterwards. 

It took about 5 yards of fabric, almost 3000m of thread, and 100 embroideries in 2 weeks. I was worried my embroidery machine would break because it started making loud noise.  I opened it up for a good oil/cleaning afterwards and seems to be running smoothly now.
