Fun fact: Frogs are pretty easy to make! Here's my pattern:
Here's my best digital recreation;
So, the pattern is pretty simple. I'll explain the process and add this picture which will be explained later:
So!
Ingredience:
- Beans (or stuffing) I use black bean or small red beans but you can probably use whatever!
- Thread/needles (a machine is nice)
- Fabric (I'm using 25¢ a sheet felt, but you can use whatever you want, like literally you can use old sweater scraps)
- Buttons/embroidery thread if you want to add ~pizazz~
- The design
Steps:
1. Print/draw out the design in any size. Cut out the design in fabric twice (for a top and a bottom). The design itself already accounts for seam allowance, so your frog will be roughly the size of the blue line in the picture above.
2. Sew the two fabric pieces together, leaving a gap somewhere (I put it in the space between the two back legs). Make it pretty big!
3. Turn the frog inside out, to get rid of the nasty edges
4. Add buttons and cool stuff now if you're going to!
5. Stuff with beans/fabric to your liking. I use a funnel to get the beans in.
6. Once the boy is properly stuffed, hand-stitch up the hole. A ladder stitch is what I use, if you don't know what that is, you can look it up or just do whatever stitch you know/like.
7. Use needle to tuck loose thread edges into the seams if needed (it's exactly what it sounds like, just poke 'em in)
8. Your boi is complete! Throw him at your family members and say 'I made a frog!' (Recommended, not required)
9. Give him a little kiss on his fuzzy head and be proud of yourself! (required)

Roman: We appreciate you. Not everything you make has to be the work of Adam (Driver). It's okay to mess up. You aren't just Thomas's hero; you're the hero of a lot of fans too.
Orange: TBD. (Right now, 'Come out, come out, wherever you are!')
Janus: Thank you. Also, I think your name is awesome.
Remus: You aren't evil. You're just as important as the other sides.
Patton: It's okay to say 'I don't know.' You aren't supposed to have all the answers. You aren't letting anyone down.
Logan: I listen when you're talking, and I learn from you, and I know a lot of other fans do. You can show your emotions, we know you have them. We'll always take you seriously.
Virgil: We love you. You've never been the villain— you've always been looking out for Thomas's safety.
(I know some of them aren't really 'one thing' shh)
(I know Remus is as important as everyone else because @thatsthat24 doesn't make one-dimensional sides. All the sides are like onions: they have several layers and once they're revealed you usually start crying)
Patton: Hey Logan, what house do you think I would be in?
Logan: Oh well I'd say Hufflepuff
Patton: Why?
Logan, confused that he asked for elaboration: Well, Hufflepuffs are known for being friendly and loyal and liking a sense of community and family... Also your need to follow morals exactly and get confused because you don't know what morally right sometimes seems the most Hufflepuff to me...
Patton: Oh, that makes sense
Roman: What house would I be?
Logan, realizing they actually want to hear him rant about his hyperfixation, lighting up: Well—
People really out here saying 'women can't be superheros (or in positions of power at all) because they're too emotional' and ignoring that Captain America: Civil War is all about two grown men starting a fight and splitting their team in two because they couldn't talk it out like civilized adults
I feel like the longer Bad's hair gets, the more "feral" he gets. Like,
Shaved hair Bad: Says "Do not laugh at me, good sir," to Dream after saying he runs faster without hair
Long hair Bad: Confidently, knowingly, and repeatedly asserts that he is on the top and Skeppy is on the bottom, holding up a shirt with decals of both of them on it (in that order), even after Skeppy points out it's the other way around on his version of the shirt
(There is a see-through glass shower door unless otherwise specified)
Roman: Hey, do you have any shaving cream?
Remus, showering fully clothed: No, I don't like the way that it tastes.
Roman: Wh— You eat shaving cream?
Remus: No! Why would I eat it if I don't like the way that it tastes?
Roman: Hey Pat, do you have shaving cream?
Patton, pink because he’s never going to be used to this: No. I can't grow facial hair.
Roman: ...True. I’m not sure why I asked.
Roman: Hey De— Janus—
Janus, soaking in the bathtub, unfortunately without convenient bubbles, as snakes do: …
Roman, regretting his life: Never mind snakes don't even have hair—
Roman: Hey, My Chemically Imbalanced Romance, do you have any shaving cream?
Virgil, invisible behind a black shower curtain: Why on earth would I?
Roman: …
Roman: Do you have any shaving cream?
Logan: Yes. It does have a scent to it, however.
Roman: Oh, that's fine. Is it woody? Or musky?
Logan: It's honey-mango.
Roman: ...What?
Logan: They’re both very good for your skin, and happen to be fragrant.
Roman, after using Logan’s shaving cream: I FEEL BEAUTIFUL.
Between Remus and his complicated relationship with Patton, Janus probably hasn't slept in eight years
(There is a see-through glass shower door unless otherwise specified)
Virgil: Have you seen my headphones?
Patton: I haven't, sorry kiddo, I’ll tell you if I see them
Virgil: Thanks
Virgil: Have you seen my headphones?
Logan: No. I will inform you if I do.
Virgil: Thanks
Virgil: Have you se— Roman?
Roman, frozen:
Virgil: Um, hey? You alright?
Roman: *squeak*
Roman: *falls over*
Virgil: ...Well we don't have time to unpack all of that *sinks out*
Virgil: H—
Janus: No, whatever you're going to ask, I don't, I haven’t, whatever, the answer is no. Now will you people let me soak in peace?
Virgil: *hiss*
Janus: *hisses back*
Virgil: Have you seen my headphones?
Remus, fully clothed, thoughtfully: I had headphones once. They were crunchy.
Virgil: …Please tell me you didn't eat my headphones.
Remus: No, I don't like the black flavor.
Virgil, used to this: Alright
My father just showed me this and I feel like if Remus was a celebrity, this is exactly what he would do

When I was like eight years old I overheard my mother and aunt talking about how apparently if you don't learn to wiggle your ears as a kid, you'll never be able to, and that they wished they could wiggle their ears
And little 8-year-old me went "oh man, I better learn to wiggle my ears now so I don't regret it later!"
Anyway I can now and I have never once gone "boy, good thing I can wiggle my ears"
He/they (both equally good)I love asks, requests, general interaction, and stuff like that!Mostly various fandom stuff, I'm just having a good time and enjoying myselfI hope I can make you smile :)
