Felt - Blog Posts

These are felt dolls I made in 2019 of Sakura and Elise from from Fire Emblem: Fates! 

I made Sakura first and a few month later I made Elise. I also made a pegasi for Sakura, but both of them can ride on it. 

I made them both from a pattern I made myself. (Although Elise ended up being an inch taller then Sakura, I don’t know how that happened)

I put metal flowers on Sakura’s head ribbon, and crackled agate beads on Elise’s ribbons. 

Both of them are small enough to ride around in my shirt pockets! :D

This is a doll I made of Spinel from Steven Universe as a gift for my friend @foxtrotparadox​! 

She is made out of felt, yarn (I braided it to make her arms) and thread which I sewed together. I made all the patters for her myself. 

Overall, she was really fun to make! (The first two photos are ones that I took, and the second two are Lily’s)

Kill

Would someone relate to my words between conscious states?

I know when it’s a true flow so I know it might come between dreams. All magic comes out of our motion only shit comes out of our schemes. The brain is made just for learning but our hard work can’t be something just to please the supreme being. Prayers answered isn’t something we’re earning. Souls can get sold but not saved on a trade spirituality takes spiritual work to achieve

Les épingles ponctuent le paysage feutré, comme autant de lignes mélodiques. Elles reflètent la lumière, tout comme le feraient les pistons des cuivres,ou les tuyaux d'un orgue.

I have been writing and rewriting and starting and restarting the same story for probably like 13 or 14 years, and I keep feeling like maybe this time I will get it to work.

Another pouch, I made it to explain this tutorial

Cartoon Pouch Tutorial

I messed up the first time I uploaded this and I lost everything I wrote, here I go again...

First of all, I want to apologize for the number of pics, I know it's a shitton of pics, but bear with me, I don't know how to explain some stuff properly, so I need visual help

Here's the stuff I used, I had a mind slip and wrote Fleece, but it's Felt, also, Iron the fabric you'll use before you use it, I took the pic before I ironed it.

Use something as a reference for the size you want, the biggest thing I'll fit in my pouch is my student ID, so I use it to cut the clothes, I'll use the lines to sew so I leave some margin so it's not super tight.

Be sure to leave all the ugly bits facing outside, we'll cover them with the felt later, also the zipper slider should be facing outside too.

If you don't have a zipper foot (or, like me, don't want to search it) simply place the foot the closest you can to the zipper, when you get close-ish to the slider move the neeedle down so the fabric doesn't move (like in the second pic) and lift the foot, then open the zipper, put the foot down again and finish sewing, for the other side you should start with the zipper open and then close it... In the end it should look like the third pic.

Now sew it to make it a pouch, like you can see, the pretty bits are inside.

Now to give our pouch some personality, this is the sketch I'll use as a reference, notice that I planned where the inner pouch will be to avoid making it too big.

Cut the Felt in the shape you need, to cut the hole for the zipper simply place the pouch you just made where you want it to be, secure it with pins and use a sharpie to mark where the zipper begins and ends, then cut the little rectangle.

Now sew this felt piece to the pouch so we have the back ready, to hide the stitches inside use the lid that you got when you sew the zipper, also, try to make regular stitches with a color similar to the felt.

Now, for the front part, cut all the details you'll need, Bidoof needed a pair of eyes, a nose, a tan muzzle, teeth and a light marking, for the Fin I uploaded a couple of days ago I only needed his face shape and eyes.

Sew the pieces in place using regular stitches, also try to kep the same distance between the edge and the stitches at all times.

Now to sew the back and front together you'll need to do the following, I used white felt with black thread in the example so it looks better... Pass the needle to the other side, now try to enter the needle in the same spot you used first, pass though the loop, it should look like a know when you're closing it, now go a little bit higher and do the same kind of knot, you'll notice how you'll get the thread around and on the edge, rinse and repeat until youre finished, my stitches in the example look gross, but you should try to be as regular as posible for a nice look...

And that's the finished example... if you use this tutorial to make a pouch I appreciate a link back, and I'd love to see the finished product too.

Hope everything is clear, but if you have doubts tell me and I'll do my best to clear them...

Cheers!
