Giant Plush Companion Cube

March 13, 2014 by alex 3 Comments

My latest finished project is a giant plush Weighted Companion Cube for a friend who is cosplaying the Ratman from Portal. I followed this tutorial, except I scaled everything up so that the thing is one cubic foot. The finished product: I added some ribbon loops to two of the corners so it can be … [Read more…]

Pattern: Sheerow from The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds

March 6, 2014 by alex Leave a Comment
A photo of the finished Sheerow plush from the side.

Ravio is one of Link Between Worlds’s new additions to the Zelda universe, a charming shopkeeper who generously rents Link the tools he needs to save the worlds–for a fee. Sheerow is his companion, a little bird that swoops down to recollect Ravio’s property when Link has fallen. This PDF pattern is a guide to … [Read more…]

Tutorial Tuesday: Twirly Skirts!

March 4, 2014 by alex Leave a Comment

This tutorial is for Ceri, who requested twirly skirts for toddlers, but this tutorial will work for anybody. Twirly skirts for all! There are two types of skirts I enjoy making the most, and they both have a high twirl factor: circle skirts and tiered petticoat-style skirts. Circle skirts are a great first sewing project … [Read more…]

Craft Room Organizing

February 27, 2014 by alex Leave a Comment

A few months ago, I decided enough was enough and it was finally time to completely clean up my sewing room. The place was a true disaster, half-finished projects and stacks of fabric lying everywhere, crumpled tissue patterns shoved in corners, boxes of supplies stacked on overflowing shelves. Even getting to the point where I … [Read more…]

Tutorial Tuesday: Solaire’s Tabard (Dark Souls)

February 25, 2014 by alex Leave a Comment

I recently made Solaire’s tabard for a friend; it’s a great project if you’re just starting out with sewing and/or cosplay. Here’s how it’s done! You will need: About 2 yards medium- or heavy-weight white fabric. Pick something from the bottomweights section that isn’t shiny or too textured. Quilting cotton, which I use in a … [Read more…]

Tutorial: DIY Hobonichi Techo Planner Cover

February 20, 2014 by alex 7 Comments

Just a couple weeks ago I was introduced to the Hobonichi Techo. It’s called a planner, but it’s more like a combination planner/diary/scrapbook. You can use it not just to remember appointments but write about what you did that day, jot down ideas, doodle and sketch, or save things like ticket stubs. The Hobonichi store … [Read more…]

Ravio’s Hood

February 18, 2014 by alex 7 Comments

The last and most important piece of a Ravio cosplay is his hood (or hat, whatever you want to call it). This is the piece that makes what looks like a pretty simple costume into something a bit trickier, so I hope this is helpful to other Ravio cosplayers out there. For fabric, I used … [Read more…]

Ravio’s Belt and Scarf

February 13, 2014 by alex 2 Comments

Part 2 in How to Make a Ravio Cosplay! Or at least, how I made one. One of the things that makes Ravio’s outfit a bit more complicated than it looks at first is how three-dimensional the details are. I’ve spent hours and hours doing applique on costumes, but Ravio has none of that: all … [Read more…]

First Cosplay of 2014: Ravio

February 11, 2014 by alex Leave a Comment

I’m working on two cosplays for PAX East: Ravio from The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds and Lucina from Fire Emblem: Awakening. I just finished Ravio this week so I thought I would talk a bit about how I made this costume. There are five main components of Ravio’s outfit: the hood, the … [Read more…]
