Project 13 was an upright skunk tail. This was a mess to do- namely the shape was a pain mentally. I like the way it came out but I do not know if I'll do another upright skunk tail in the future. Others I will but this took a lot of mental fortitude to get through. #fursuit #fursuitmaking #sewing

Normally the tails would come right after the head of the character is finished but this gave me a lot of issues- turns out an upright skunk tail has a lot more problems then the cute stripes.

The biggest issue was getting the shape right- that one took way too long, when a skunk tail is upright it needs to be able to be bent in multiple directions while also being thick on some sides. That was a mental mess to try to get right and I still think I could have done it even better but the current form works well.

Being upright it has a foam base with a aluminum bar as it's skeleton. Making a tail to go around that, as well as to be able to take it off that for storage or carrying to cons I had to add a zipper that would fit the big shape so there's one on the underside.

The top heavy nature of it required the belt structure to be a lot more heavy duty than originally planned. Adding to that, because of its weird shape it also likes to move on me weird when walking, which may need an extra thing at the top to just attach the top to me, which defeats the purpose of the skeleton.

The zipper being there does mean I can make it into a normal belted tail at any point too, which is nice.

In the future I don't think I will make another upright skunk tail unless I figure out something specific to help all those issues out, though I will do other upright ones as it works for skinnier but big upright tails that aren't as top heavy, and the foam base may actually be much easier to handle.

I still like the way it came out but I am glad this tail is out of the way and done!

My next project was back to bandanas. These were from my 3rd pattern They are double sided & the buttons are reversible. The larger size plus the buttons lets both large & small people & fursuiters wear the bandanas These were all given away to friends/for prizes at a convention #sewing

A pile of colorful bandanas lay on a wooden floor. The bandanas strewn about have many different cartoon characters on it. The bottom two bandanas are flipped in a way that shows both sides of them to show they are double-sided.

When prototyping a tail I ended up wanting to make little tail key chains using scraps of fur. I made a coyote one I liked but I used short fur I bought. The fur scrap one I made looked bad so it's back to the drawing board on it. This will be a project I come back to sometime. #sewing #fursuit

A keychain on a table. The keychain is connected to what is essentially faux fur that is layered tan with bluish-gray under in almost a coyote kind of fur coloring. It is in a shape of a canine tail. Next to it there is a pattern shaped almost like a deer tail, with markings on it. The table is also lined with pins and scissors from the crafts.

Project 10 was a commission, a plush bag conversion for a gift A basic project, the only weirdness was the plastic heart piece causing issues. Had to rearrange the tail and the wings for the bag to work too A successful mini-project that I was able to do without much issue! #sewingproject #sewing

Project #9 was a big project- a new fursuit head. Partially used to test out some new techniques and ideas, wanting to prove I can do it again, as well a character suit I've needed for a bit. With her turning out well I will open for partials eventually. #fursuit #fursuitmaking #crafting #sewing

The next project, #8, was done after the bear bag. A kidcore bandana for personal use. This quick one turned into a prototype for future ones I'll be making for people in the next few months. There will be changes in the future version including neck fitting, longer wings and more. #crafts #sewing

Project 7 was another stuffed animal bag. Unlike the last bag this was to be a purse w/ the ability to change into a backpack The bear was a plush that was de-stuffed, lined with denim, w/ added zipper, straps & removable cushion for shoulder comfort & strap maintenance #sewing #plushies

Projects 5 & 6 came from the pattern I made. Project 5 was a Test Paw only hand sewn. Project 6 was Test Paw only machine Would look even better with a natural color but after the beans were added they looked like paws. And felt good with the dexterity attachments #fursuit #sewing

Showing the hand sewn elastic for the wrist on the first test paw.

Showing the machine sewn edges on the second test paw. Was the first time using a machine.

The first test paw, after beans were added.

Both paws after they were finished. The machine sewn one may need more shaving. Will eventually be given away.

The 4th project was a preamble to the next two projects and technically I was testing the idea through the next two: creating my own pattern for hand paws The final pattern I made worked well, will need to adjust a few things, but it'll be released eventually! #sewing #fursuit

Random question, does anyone have any recommendations for a sewing machine for fur? My next suit will be my first try with a machine and I want one that won't make me curse with constant jams/whatever. Budget up to $200 (b4 tax) as I'm okay if it'll break in a years, it's mostly for learning atm.

I'll keep this page updated with completed projects and more, including opening commissions sometime in the future. If you're curious about my work I keep a journal of my process, complete with in-progress pics: t.me/whiskerwonde... It has only been 2 months on this journey, excited to keep going!

My third large project: A prototype stuffed animal bag. Rescued a bunny plush from a thrift store and made her into something new and cuter than ever. There were things I still need to change/fix (the straps) but it worked well! You hug your plushies all the time, let them hug you back! #crafts

Whoa a tail! Made in a few days, beating the clock to get ready for a convention, this was my second "big" project. Hardest part was the spots. Tried to make the tail magnetic to let me use it without a belt- unfortunately the experiments were a bust. Still trying more soon! #fursuit #crafts

My first fursuit head, made for (and by) Onyx Cheetah. Head fully finished September 22, 2023. If you notice, the first picture is missing the eye lining- after looking at pics of her, she seemed sad. So I updated! The cheek fluffs were added within days to give more definition. #fursuit #crafts
