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.
-
I just realised I didn’t account for the crest movement when patterning! Oops, but fixed it!
-
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.

Labouriously sewing in the pads and clipping parts together whilst watching Adam Savage.

Making up a craft apron with lots of handy pockets for my mum from my scrap stash.

It’s hot here in Australia. Making progress on something watery. Maybe I’ll go jump in the ocean later…
-
I want 5 finger paws for some future personal suits, so I decided to make my own generic ‘feral animal’ pattern and practice sewing it. These are the pieces of the prototype paw. I may consider selling this set once completed (only because I can’t keep literally everything I make 🤣)
-
Made some considerable progress. Although, the colours are so similar in some areas I now am cross-eyed!

Channelling those summer vibes. Sorry about the horrible lighting, this was taken under my craft light.
