Way back in January I became interested in softie-making after finding a book about it at my boyfriend's house. I acquired some felt and went to work creating these fellows, Julio (left) and Jeffe (right).
Julio and Jeffe are characters from the future. They live in a post-nuclear-apocolypse world and they are scientists charged with seeking out the few survivors in the nearly barren wasteland Earth has become. They bring the survivors back to their salvaged research facility and perform tests on them to find out why these humans and other lifeforms have survived. They are the building blocks for the post-apocolyptic continuation of the human species. Julio is a hopeless romantic, an endlessly idealistic warrior for the power of humanity to prevail peacefully. Jeffe is Julio's chubby best friend, a bastion of logic in the face of the absurdity and chaos that surrounds them.
These jovial gentlemen were created from felt and stuffed with pearl barley before I'd developed much skill with a needle and thread or harnassed any concept of craftsmanly design. I love them all the same.
Here in my underwear drawer are some of my as yet most adored creations. They're soft. They're supple. They come in all manner of shapes and colors. I never tire of creating more. Everyone loves them: tits. These goodies are filled with cotton and lentils, for a beanbaggy-type feel.
