This is my first year doing lots of conventions, and we were very lucky to get accepted into several large ones this summer. But with these additional events also comes additional work - and I've been working my arse off for the past few months
While I didn't technically need to design new stuff, I wanted to. And as I got to creating, more and more ideas began to come out and suddenly there were enough new things to actually become a full 2025 summer collection.
In the past, I only focused on doing spring and autumn launches for products, using the seasons in between to design. So doing all of this right at the start of the year, which traditionally has been more calm for me, has been a little overwhelming.
Everything in the preview above, except for the beige corduroy hat, is a NEW design I've made over the past 2 months! The blurred sticker sheets at the bottom are the next few months of Patreon rewards, already designed ;D (Yes I design them months in advance - this is to keep costs down and quality high)
This has probably been my most productive quarter ever, and hopefully this means I can relax a bit over the next two months while I wait for everything to get produced and shipped to me.
But I still need to design my booths for these events, but we can save that for another post <3
