Heyllo to My Awesome Viewers :3

Hey guys! Sorry that I haven't posted anything in almost forever and a day. ^_^;;; I've been working on my newest project which is Kagamine Rin's Default Cosplay! Yaaaaay!!! It would go much much faster if the hand held sewing machine would actually work. >_> So now I'm having to hand sew it all. Ehehe. *groan* It's taking forever to sew all of the little triangles on her belt. TTT-TTT I really need a sewing machine. So yeah, please be patient with me and my life drama and crap. ^^; Hopefully I will get at least one tutorial up before this month ends and if not then I have no idea when I'll get anything done. *dies slightly* I'll post at some point.

Thanx for keeping with me,

Splurge >w<

Hey guys! So today I decided to splurge a bit and get an actual sewing machine! Yaaaaaay!!! XD Even though its only a hand held it works great. :) I bought it at my local Michael's store for $18. :3 I'm thinking about going back and getting a regular sewing machine for $45-50 that they have available there. :)


It makes nice straight stitches that I can never achieve with my hand sewing. :D

Miku Plushie :3

Hey guys! So yeah, I know this post has nothing to do with cosplay, but it is anime so I might as well post about it. :) So recently I started making plushies! :D I got all of my felt at Walmart, 23 cents per solid colored sheet. I got the pattern off of Deviantart, so it's not mine to own. ^_^

Isn't she. . .

just adorable? :)

Yeah, I let my friend draw the face on my plushie. The first try wasn't such a success. ^^;;; She put way too much detail into the face and in the end all of the cute detail just kinda bled together making it look not so cute. ^^;;;;;;;;;; Her second attempt looks way better since it's much more simple than the first. :) So yeah, I will post more pics of any other plushies I complete in the future! :D

Rin Bow and Headphone Templates

Hey guys! So I ran into a problem when I was making my Kagamine Rin bow. My problem was that I couldn't get the shape right so I found this pic, printed it out, and used it as a pattern of sorts. I also had another problem with the headphone template so I found another template online. And here's a couple of tips: When you make the microphone part wrap the foam strip around a straightened jumbo sized paper clip. The paper clip adds a more stiff look to it and if you bend it it will stay in place. :3 Just don't wrap the whole thing, leave at least an inch of exposed paper clip to use for attaching the microphone to the earphone. I also wrapped another strip around the end for the mouthpiece then traced and cut a circle to glue onto the end of the mouthpiece. Then I cut to pieces of yellow paper and glued them to the outside of the mouthpiece. I hope this post helps you too! XD
