One of my hobbies is sewing felt dolls. Look at them! Click on the pictures to look at them closer!<\/p>\n

I’ve been making dolls for over five years now, and I think I’ve gotten a lot better\u2014so the more recent photos are up at the top, where they can impress you better.<\/p>\n

Most of these dolls have been sold or given away. The only ones I’ve held onto are the ones with deep sentimental value! I wish I had an Etsy store where you could buy a bunch of my dolls, but as things currently stand, if you want a Ryan Veeder doll, you gotta\u00a0email me<\/a>\u00a0so we can figure out some sort of commission setup.<\/p>\n

Above are a few of my favorites from the prizes I made in late 2015 and early 2016 for the first quadrennial Ryan Veeder Exposition for Good Interactive Fiction<\/a>. I’m especially proud of how everybody that’s supposed to be standing on their own feet seems to be doing so successfully.<\/p>\n

These are just a couple of the dinosaur dolls I made in June of 2015, around the time\u00a0Jurassic World<\/em> hit theaters. The various dinosaurs I sewed were part of a Plaid Peacock window display called “TERRIBLE ISLAND”:<\/p>\n

It was really hard to photograph!<\/p>\n

\"\"Here are some kobolds, characters from my Dungeons & Dragons campaign. From left to right that’s Oakley, Kassandra, and Zeke. These are from I think January of 2015.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The guy on the left is Professor Thezh and the guy on the right is El Calderon. An unlikely pair. I built them in August 2015, when apparently I had need to make a lot of different dolls…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

“Fegredo,” from also August of 2014, kind of a Mike Wazowski kind of guy.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

“Olivine,” also from August of 2014. This lady was a very interesting topological challenge.<\/p>\n
