Finally sewing up my partners last ‘fun’ shirt. I’m hungry for donuts just looking at it.
-
Finalised the sleeves in prep for fur cutting. The original sleeve was embarassingly too large so I reduced the armhole (old sleeve). This was too small and stretched the sleeve/torso sections. Some slight modifications and I have a sleeve that is tight but not too tight, and doesn’t stretch (new sleeve).
-
Finished feetpaws. Pattern by Kemocube on etsy, with the modifications of claws and padded lining. These are super comfy and squishy! Would be great for a partial fursuit/costume or even as indoor slippers.
-
Finished up my apron. I am so pleased with this, it looks a whole heap neater than the last one. The pockets are all really deep too meaning I can keep lots of useful things on me when making!
-
Decided to make myself a bee themed crafting apron using a different pattern. This one won’t have a zippered pocket, but the pockets will be deeper and the finishing will be much cleaner I think.
-
Progress on the sockpaws. The pattern said I could set claws into the darts, but that didn’t work so well as they all ended up too low on the foot and bend into the floor. Something to note for future use.
-
This is a much better pattern! Look at that range of movement, so many wiggles. A few minor tweaks still, but none that will stop me ordering fur now!
-
I aim to finish the bulk of this fursuit this year. But first some problem solving. Left is the identified problems with the current pattern/test fit. Right are the modifications to the overall padding and shapes to resolve. Next step is to re-tape the pattern & make another test fit.
-
Finally finished the bumble bee! The photo doesn’t do it justice, it looks very realistic in real life.
-
Finished up the apron. It’s a sweet & simple design, but I’m not a fan of the finishing. I want one for myself now, so I’m thinking I’ll either experiment…or be lazy and find a different pattern that includes trims.
