I need to add buttons and darts, but I feel like I've done pretty good so far
#2024 past tense Jadzia I'm coming for you#I am SO JAZZED#I feel like I can't even claim I don't know what I'm doing anymore#please excuse poor lumpy I decided I needed to go all Kirk on the dress form#I couldn't find thicker stripes but I got the colors#is it wrong to cannabalize buttons from a work shirt cause I don't really work anymore#make bad art or whatever#cosplay updates#but like really I don't know what I'm doing#I didn't have a pattern on this was drafted#I was in bed last night and jumped out to figure out how they sew collars on#wish me luck in terrified of the vest and jacket

indie clothing companies tell me what cup size your patterns are drafted for challenge
#frustrating to know how to make things fit but not be given enough information to actually Do it#i just want to make some fun hobbit vests i don't want to have to make three mockups to reverse-engineer what pattern size fits my shoulder#(for the record all Big Four sewing patterns are drafted with a B sewing cup#which explains why they do not fit most people)

gotta wind a new bobbin
#i learned that on pleather you have to clip the curves BEFORE you sew. much more pleasant experience#im sooo excited for how this is turning out#especially bc i drafted the pattern myself?#ive modified patterns before and made simple garments (skirts#& tank tops and whatnot)#without a pattern#but this is my first nonstretch knitted garment!!#estelcosplays#indara past and present

Every year I know what I want to be for Halloween by like, August
And every year I wait til October to actually commit to making it
#panic#brought to you by#I have to learn how to smock fabric#in 2 weeks#I swear the ghost of a expert seamstress possesses my body only in the month of October#cause the rest of the year I don’t know how to see#and I have to learn a bunch of new skills in not a lot of time#last year was pattern drafting#the year before was straight up just learning how to use a sewing machine#but I am dedicated to accuracy and committing to the bit 💅

so many things i want to do, so much art i want to make
#libra.txt#started working on some ravio refs for my fic. still haven't finished thief girl's. still haven't started hilda's.#i want to draw my ocs! i want to draw for my friends!#i need to work on my sewing projects!#but i am so so tired all the time. i can barely focus on anything#four days into cutting out all the things i learned i'm allergic to and since it's only been four days i can't tell if it's doing anything#all i know is i feel so drained all day. i'm too foggy to function#i got the dishes done. i drafted the pattern + pinned my cuffs for raine.#the dress form is nearly set up to pin fi's cloak. but i still need to draft it first#how am i supposed to get anything done when i can't think?#not enough hours in the day to do diddly squat

i just got done with my third chiro appointment, and like. I've noticed a significant improvement in terms of how much pain I'm in but I'm also noticing i can't like. stay sitting up. I can sit, which isn't always the case, but the muscles in my back are so loosey goosey/ not responding/ spasming that I keep curling forward until my head is almost pressed to the bed in front of me while I'm sitting cross legged. Don't know what that's about but it's affecting productivity something awful.
#like#i have shockingly good muscle tone considering how little i can move so this isnt a strength issue.#Ish. Like. the thing with eds is that if you have it severe enough your muscles have to pick up the slack for your ligaments#which results in you building way more muscle than you would expect#I cant lift more than 25lbs in like a bag or something without dislocating my elbows/shoulders#but i can bench 180~ and barbell squat my own weight#its just a matter of not pulling on anything#Tbh i think this is just the level of Nonsense that happens when my muscles arnt constantly tense.#my ligament structure isnt sturdy enough to work without that extra reinforcement#Anyways ive needed a back brace since i was 12 but insurance wont pay for it and like fuck am i able to shell out the 20k myself.#Ive looked into corsets but my proportions are so weird that id need a custom pattern#which is Pricey to get from a reputable company. like 2-3k which is better than 20. but still out of reach.#Im not confident enough in my drafting ability to make one myself.#seeing ms.banner. a real and skilled seamstress who knows what shes doing. lay herself out with a bad corset pattern is kinda#a good sign that maybe i an idiot whos sewing experience is stuffed animals and quilts. should not fuck around with my spinal health#I think id be more comfortable doing it myself if there were more mens corset patterns and more examples of how non#lingerie mens corsets are like. meant to work#i dont exactly need bust support. and most women's corsets dont have the shoulder support mens do. and thats like.#the area im most scared about fucking up bc its already a nightmare#tbh when i get the sg shop open im putting all the profits into a savings account and just working hard to get the budget to pay#for a proper corset.

Things I should be doing: finishing detective-izing the monkey or doing the ironing for the second quilt for the twins
What I’m doing instead: impulse making a purple bunny
#fabric#sewing wip#sometimes I am consumed by the urge to make a specific thing#frequently I can’t figure out what it is I want to make#or how to make it#but this time. this time!!!#I saw an old drawing I did of a bunny#and was like wait. shapes. I know those shapes!!!#this is a much more complex pattern than I’ve attempted drafting before#it has 12 different pattern pieces for a total of 27 different pieces of fabric#which isn’t THAT many but for reference my eel pattern has one pattern piece and two pieces of fabric#and my whale shark is 4 pattern pieces for a total of ten pieces of fabric#the bee is five pattern pieces for eleven fabric pieces#so 27 is a bit of an outlier for me#we’ll see how it goes! not sure#should I have chosen a less fussy fabric that’s easier to see results in for the prototype? maybe!#if it works I’m going to go with an EVEN FUSSIER fabric#it’s also a fuzzier fabric#okay I should sleep now good night

i am having such a nightmarish time of trying to get the sleeves in this pattern to fit properly... my arms are very long and thin and the widest part of them (below my actual fucking shoulder at least) is right at the elbow, especially when i bend my arm, which makes trying to find a solution that gives me enough room to bend my arm comfortably without making the elbows of the sleeves horribly baggy and ugly when my arms are resting in a neutral position... well, as i said, i am having a nightmarish time
#stfu blue#sewing#reborking is prohibited#i am TIRED of drafting and re-drafting my sleeve pattern Over And Over And#fuck dude every time i try to look up solutions everything is like 'here's how to add room in the bicep' like NO! I HAVE ENOUGH ROOM THERE!#i do not have enough room SPECIFICALLY AT THE ELBOW#and no i will not add an elbow dart i am using a two part sleeve pattern and elbow darts are hideous thanks#i will figure this out i am just. killing and maiming and violence#maybe i literally just need to like. move where the two part sleeve seams even Go. maybe i need to take a leaf from my knit shirt pattern#and just move the underarm seam to be a front of arm seam. maybe that will allow me to make this work#god it's such a pain in the ass to move a seam around such a narrow tube shape though. ugh

Probably not gonna post anything for supercorptober for the next few days cause I really need to focus on sewing my Halloween costume. I think I'll still try to catch up on what I've missed afterwards 🌞
#im trying to sew kaarija's bolero#based on vibes alone#cause i a) don't actually know how to sew#and b) definitely dont know how to draft a pattern#im relying 100% on homosexual audacity#it worked last year so it should work this year 🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️#i also have to alter the pants ive bought significantly#cause they are mens pants and i dont have man shaped thighs#ive stabbed myself with pins about 1000 times already putting the pants pieces back together#this is far too much context for why i wont be drawing for a bit#so if you made it this far i love u 😘
