    The third one is SO helpful!
    I've always had problems with like... having to sew down the last piece of fur to a head, but being too afraid of the seams showing so I'd have to cut a little hole and flip it inside out and it was way too much work that could've been avoided >

    This is incredibly useful, I also find hand sewing quite relaxing so I can now use this stitches for little pluches and stuff when I'm boring

    Awesome video! I was actually doing the ladder stitch the wrong way so I learned something new! I'll soon check out your patreon and pledge (might be in a couple of weeks when I know im financially secure). You make great videos and I learn a lot from them. i find myself watching them time and time again because I keep finding myself learning new things from them even after the 5th watch through! Keep up the great work, and I look forward to more video's! Wether they be tutorials or not.
    Edit: whoops i meant ladder stitch haha

    I'm aware you use the zig-zag stitch a lot in your tutorials, I'm confused as to what parts of the fursuit to use that stitch on and why using that stitch would be better than the blanket stitch?

    • @triangleshiny
      @triangleshiny 4 года назад +1

      older comment and be aware that i'm not a maker but: in clothing zig zag stitch is generally used for stretchy fabrics and knits, as well as places that need to stretch more. it allows the fabric to move with its intended amount of stretch without separating or popping the seam as easily.
      the blanket stitch offers a much better hold on heavier materials like thick fleece or fur, and in my experience is used for binding raw edges on fabrics or pieces you can't really hem easily (like a blanket!). it's a much more robust stitch, but it isn't necessary or even desirable for everything.

    Can you completely hand stitch a fursuit? do you need a sewing machine, or is it just faster and convenient?

    • @shamanly3087
      @shamanly3087 6 лет назад +1

      You can completely handstitch, using a sewing machine just makes it more sturdy and quick!

    • @Kloofsuits
      @Kloofsuits  6 лет назад +3

      Same answer as previous reply - you can hand stitch everything! This video mostly applies to the times I need to hand stitch, but by all means you do not need a machine. I taught myself by making everything by hand for a couple years!

      If you're hand sewing parts of the body, yes the blanket stitch would be best. But machine sewing is best for larger portions of bodies.

      Starboat Lps I’ve tried hot glue, it works okay but there will be seams when your parts of fur meet. Like this:
      Fur part*seam*fur part

      Then your suit will fall apart faster. You have to sew fur patterns together, it will last a lot longer and look way better.
