Little update on Moss!
First of all, massive thanks to everyone who sent any suggestions to help out with his clips! I really liked the idea of gluing fake moss on them, so that's what I decided to try - and what I managed to get was this dried out moss-like plant that should be okay to use for this kind of thing (and hell, I've already seen another furb with this stuff glued directly onto the fur, and funnily enough my reblog of it was queued to post before this one).
So here's what I did with that!
I love the look, honestly. And it hides the clips really well!
He does seem to have a bit of an issue with his tilt sensor, causing him to constantly switch back into this grumpy personality, hence the full name being Mossball Bastard. But hey, we love him anyway c:

new ears AND new paint! he’s gonna get his faceplate painted white soon to cover up her sun damage, as well :3
the backing fabric i use for my ears is this very soft minky fabric that is so nice to pet and rub, 10/10 definitely recommend using minky fabric for custom ears

This is the Furby I designed and created for Saoirse:
And here's Duke, the Furby she created for me:
I absolutely adore Duke!! Thank you again Saoirse it was so fun trading with you, and I'd do it again in a heartbeat!
I'll post more pics of Duke later, maybe tomorrow.

Weave in your tails
Pompom - please look up a separate pompom-making tutorial, i suck at making pompoms. After you make one, just use the same thread you used to tie the pompom together to sew in to the beret on top
The trim - entirely optional, I used a crochet thread and a 2mm hook
(ss, 5sc, ss) into each [50]

more stripes! crazier stripes! center-out stripes!
replace the pompom with someting else - a flower, or a bow maybe?
crochet emroidery
add some lace or a ribbon
