In true bi style, I'm late for bi visibility day ..

So please enjoy this peace offering of the first test bat I made, which turned out to actually be a fluffy goblin...!

It's a bit on the nose when I can't get the nice backdrop out to photograph NEW CAT PLUSHIES cause there's an actual cat asleep on my desk...!

I dropped them into @queeremporium.bsky.social yesterday, along with a pan bat 😻🦇

#WelshHandmade #WelshBusiness #QueerBats #Cardiff #QueerCats

Stock drop off at @thequeeremporium !

I also did some sneaky book reading whilst enjoying a delicious lavender coffee. It's totally a thing y'all, can we please make flowers the next big flavours??

New stock!

Lesbian, trans and bi bats now in stock, and a puppy pride puppy!

#HandmadeUK #WelshHandmade #WelshBusiness #QueerBats #CardiffPride #Cardiff #PuppyPride

Last stock drop before #PrideCymru!

There's now at least one wallet of every flag I do, if your flag is missing them let me know and I'll add it to the list!

Have a lovely pride, hydrate, don't forget sunscreen 🧴💧🌞

#HandmadeUK #WelshHandmade #WelshBusiness #CardiffPride #Cardiff #PrideMonth

As well as queer plushies, I also keep a stash of cards wallets at @thequeeremporium, today I'm making sure each pride flag I have will be in stock for #PrideCymru this weekend

And inhaling ice lollies, lots of ice lollies...

#HandmadeUK #WelshHandmade #WelshBusiness #CardiffPride #PrideMonth

Stock drop!

I'm trying to get as many bats in before this #PrideCymru this weekend! Do ask staff at @thequeeremporium if you can't see your flag there's sometimes overstock not on display

What I thought I was filming: an in progress sewing video

What I was actually filming: evidence of why my spouse wears noise cancelling headphones when we're both working 😂

Sometimes Emo creeps onto my desk when I'm trying to work and it doesn't actually stop the work!

I've updated my Spoonflower store with some new pride heart designs (requests welcomed, I'll be adding even more over the next few days)

www.spoonflower.com/collections/...

A couple of new bats were dropped at @thequeeremporium yesterday, and one shark

Hoping to get quite a few there over the next few weeks, so if you're in Cardiff for @lgbtpridecymru or @thebigqueerpicnic then do pop in!

I'm not running almost late and don't have time to get the plain backdrop out, I don't know what you mean..!

Anyway, these will be in @thequeeremporium this evening!

Finally, baby dragons!!

After 3 months I've finally dropped off baby dragons at @queeremporium.bsky.social They feature (vegan) leather spikes, tiny impractical wings, and smushy bean bag tails and bottoms!

#QueerSharks #QueerBats #QueerDragons #HandmadeUK #WelshHandmade #CardiffPride

You know how I said I'd finally found the right red fabric, I had not... I have now though! New product is finally in production, after 3 very long months of development. Any guesses??

Also a handful of frogs were dropped at @queeremporium.bsky.social yesterday!

It's taken nearly 2 months, but I think I've finally found red fur and vegan leather that can work!

New stock is at @thequeeremporium !

Do feel free to ask here or in-store if there's a combo you're after and I'll bump it up the list

Apparently it's national apprentice week

Well, mine has been with me for 15 years now, and he's still not past the "stop eating pins!!" stage ...

Happy 1st anniversary to #PrideBats

I don't think I shared the original prototypes, did you know there was a tiny version too?? It was utterly impractical to make, too much tiny hand sewing, but they both will soon live on my wall of creatures

@thequeeremporium reopens today, my plans to have a full range of plushies has gone utterly to plan

Wait, no, I mean I lost the concept of days and so only managed a small amount of sharks, BUT that means you'll have to go in regularly to check on stock levels, right?? (I recommend their coffee ☕)

Today's delivery include emergency eyes and A BACKDROP!

Keep peeled for me forgetting it exists and taking more terrible photos... 😂

#HandmadeUK #WelshHandmade #WelshBusiness #UKHandmade #SmallBusinessUK

Have I got a decent back drop yet? Lol...

Stock is dripping into the store over the next few days, I'm trying to drop off as I finish stuff, including the newer flags

#HandmadeUK #WelshHandmade #WelshHandmade #QueerBats #CardiffPride #Cardiff #NBPride #LeatherPride #GenderfluidPride

I got myself a new funnel, the old one would get beads stuck frustratingly often

It's like a weird "Sid from Toy Story" experiment...

#HandmadeUK #WelshHandmade #WelshBusiness #QueerBats

Happy Fabric-mas to all who celebrate!

Some old favourites (right), and exciting new trial runs (left)

(Expect some new stock to hit TQE on Weds)

#HandmadeUK #WelshHandmade #WelshBusiness #CardiffPride

I'll gradually fill out my info on here over the next week, but for now please enjoy the pride and cartoon genital fabric chaos that signifies Christmas stock is very much already in demand!

I'm almost exclusively selling in in-person store this year, visit Cardiff!
