@@freckledcatcreations Hello! I have a question, what sewing machine do you use? Mine just broke and I really want to get the kind of sewing machine you use!
Thank you
-Green
@@Evie_Kowalski of course! i use a singer heavy duty! there's a couple different numbers after it but it just means how many extra fancy stitches it has. any of those will do.
@@freckledcatcreations thank you so so so much! This will be very helpful. :)
The PLOT TWIST that this is your first pair of sockpaws surprised me so much!
I'm all confused how this ended up on my recommended (though I do watch The Click..) but I just wanna say good job y'all on being fluffy and comfy
Hope whoever tries recreating them is having a blast with them, enjoy!
I’m about to try and make ‘em! I watch The Click too 😂
Definitely how it ended up in my recommendations! 😂
He guides others to a treasure he isn't willing to possess
Hello, fellow Click viewer. I've noticed that RUclips really likes pushing furry content towards people that may or may not actually enjoy it. (personally I do enjoy it, though lol)
Clickywicky definitely= furry soooo
I've never been fond of the idea of sewing each toe individually, same with fingers with puffier handpaws, but I think it's a labour that will turn out for the better in the end!! A day or two of painstakingly sewing toes for a lifetime of good looking hand and footpaws that are durable and comfortable too, I think it's worth it in the end; as sewing isn't even bad at all and is even enjoyable when you're watching a video or listening to music in the process! I'm also enjoying your choice of music for this, it's not at all often I keep my volume on for how-to videos; I worry about patterning things right, but aside from that I think my skill is up there in being ready to make something like this and I have the materials too!
1. I agree, I think sewing the fingers of handpaws is my LEAST favorite part of the process.... with feetpaws at least it's large enough I can sew with my machine and do it faster. lol.
2. I'm so glad you like the music! i'm the same way, I ALWAYS turn the music off when watching others' videos because I dont like the music choice, always so loud and hyper lol. glad you like my more relaxing soft stuff. :)
3. patternmaking is a complex skill itself! if you keep working at it your brain will eventually understand the minutiae !
Yess more tutoring, thanks for you time. Your help is making my first fursuit head steady sailing.
Very happy to help!! Good luck on your first head! :3
I’ll use your tips when I make my first fursuit which might be a tiger or a kitsune!
i like to imagine youre just a giant and the small design is actually full sized for an 8'' foot
Honestly haven’t even finished watching the video but wanna thank you because I’ve been trying to figure out how the hell people do these scaled up patterns but after seeing your measurements on your rough draft it suddenly clicked!
So thank you for that! 😂
YAY so glad it clicked for you!!!
Wow! Those look so comfy! I’ll definitely try them!
Thank you!! Your tutorials are always so helpful and informative. You’ve definitely helped me improve my Fursuit making skills!
I'm so glad!!! thank you!
6:10 is no one gonna talk about that cute kitty in the back round? ITS SO CUTE
Thanks for the video!! I honestly just watch your content on loop because its so calming to watch, but this is a tutorial for something i've never looked into before so its like a bonus this time haha
aw thank you! so glad to hear its relaxing, that's my goal tbh !!!! just something nice to put on with nice calm music!
@@freckledcatcreations youre doign a great job at that! :) i love being able to put your videos on while i work, even if im not following along the tutorials haha :D
Ooooh, im definitely going to save this video for later! Thanks so much!! Ive got a lot on my plate right now, making some other things, but I'd love to make some sock paws! :)
Thanks for the tutorial!💖
I've always wondered if there were comfy indoor fursuit feet, paw slippers here I come!
Happy to help!
Your cat wearing that jumper is the cutest thing ever :0
XD he gets so cold!!!!
OH KY GOD I WAS LITERALLY JUST LOOKING AT SOCKPAW PATTERNS TO BUY THIS WAS PERFECT TIMING?!?! now i don't need to >:DD thank you so much for posting amazing tutorials so often they're so helpful •^•
YES this way you can sculpt the exact shape and style you're going for and make your own pattern! make sure to check the clay mockup vid for more in depth on that mockup process too!
that leg that I used for a mold looks so neat in design that it makes me want to have it on a shelf jsjs
They actually make GREAT pattern weights when tracing paper onto fabric! I now have 5 clay mockup feet that I use as pattern weights X3
I’ve always loved your videos, they never fail to help/inspire me! And your little Siamese cat is so cute in their lil red sweater 😭
aw thank you so much! he's a sphynx actually! :3
@@freckledcatcreations even cuter 😭
aww yeah new upload
I love seeing your cat in the background just watching you lmao
hehe yes!! my bingus!
Just wanted to thank you again for sharing all of this with us so we don't have to learn everything from scrap
You have some very good tips and tricks and I may or may not try my hands on doing a pair myself
You are so welcome!!
Yur a huge help for me atm , I’m going to be making a fursuit for a college art project and your videos are really helping and giving me the motivation I need ,thank you !
That's awesome!!! Glad I could help!
I love that bat shirt!
thank you, its one of my faves! it's by PoodleWool on twitter!
I love the look of sock paws but I'm scared of wearing them in a convention and being pricked by a stray earring on the floor.
A valid concern! That's why I only like to do sockpaws around the house. For conventions I think it's just better to have a shoe inside (which makes them not sockpaws anymore)
Funny I have been watching your past videos this whole summer for a suit I'm making and seeing a new upload feels so taboo 😂
Clicked as soon as I got the notification! Have you thought about making zip-on feet for fursuits?
Look at this moment here 18:07
@@Varrbariouss thanks! I don't think I saw that. I should've mentioned that my question was about digitigrade feet, because I think the process of adding zippers might be a bit more different.
Oh, where the feet zip onto the legs of a fullsuit? I have only made 1 bodysuit so I havent gotten the chance! I heard it's pretty difficult / tricky tho, Opalmutt has recently stopped offering them because they're a hassle lol. If I ever do them, I'll film it for y'all tho!
You did a great job. I used a duct tape sock to model the paws onto. Really well done. Love the finished product.
Gosh I'm excited to try this, though at the same time starting another big project is a lot XD Thank you so much for this!
youre so welcome!! honestly feetpaws are quicker and easier to make (for me) than handpaws, if that makes you any less intimidated. they come together much easier!
THOSE ARE SO CUTE AHHHHH
again a wondeful and helpful video 👌
i will end up making these for a husk cosplay (hazbin hotel) for a cosplay convention, this will probably be a one use tho, lol, i will replace the bottom of the feet with foam
Iii freaking love thissss😩❤️
think you for this ideia its very helpfull because i did now what to use shoes to make out of feet paws use saved my life now i dont need to but shoes to wast all my money your a light saber
I suddenly regret trying to do a furry cosplay lmao
Thanks for the video qwq
Omg tysm im so excited ro make thesse and then i can just wear these inside and when i go outside ill just put on the feet paws wirh shoes in it I CANT WAITTT URE THE BESTTTTTT
sockpaws are sooo comfy!!
Wow nice good job 👍🙂❤️
Un muy buen tutorial, me gusta la iluminación que tienen tus tutoriales ya que así se ve claro
¡Gracias! Recientemente cambié la configuración de mi cámara web y la iluminación mejoró :)
I am wondering if this could work with silicone paw pads for sock paws and how it would change the techniques. 🐾
Ooh, good thinking! I've seen premade silicone pawpads but I've also recently seen someone try painting silicone/rubber coating onto existing soft beans and seeing if it'll work. I'll need to bookmark that and see how it progresses.
Wow i want on of those so i will make it
i don’t have access to polymer clay unfortunately, is there another alternative? would air dry clay work too?
Instead of polymer clay, monster clay would be better for making mockups. It doesn't need to be baked, you heat it up either in the microwave or with a heat gun to sculpt with it and once you're done you can just reheat it to reuse it! It will save you on clay
I considered using monster clay, but guess what - these make great pattern weights when youre done! and I do need more pattern weights. Other than that, did you have any other comments? I think if you're going to criticize the vid, I'd also like you to compliment something to be polite lol. :3
Do you have the patterns online somewhere? Remaking these so I wanna be exact
nope, but I show you how to make your own patterns! i also have a specific tutorial on how to do a clay mockup. you can shape the paws exactly the way you like!
Exselent❤👍😄😁
These toe beans are wonderful ^^
Oh my God I don't like when y'all say Toe beans I rather say pads
@@S4rkyL0v3 o-oh...s-sorry.....
@@Songal18 it's okay
@@S4rkyL0v3 no it isn't.
❤
thats so good, maybe ill make it :)
i would love nothing more than to fit my little feetsies into these!
I was wondering if i was to try and start something like this as a project what would the measurments be for a size 4 shoe/foot im not good at measurments
you would need to trace/measure the size 4 shoe and then make the mockup based on that dimension! I can't tell you.
Might make this when I’m older, thanks rlly :D
Have fun!
Even though I made the tape pattern pretty good the toes came out abnormaly large even though I used 1cm =1 inch and won’t fit on the paw fur
Hello there. They look so cute and comfy! Is there a free pattern of it? If not, how can i draw myself?
Thanks!
I'm not selling the pattern for them, but I show in the video how to make your own foot pattern that you like!
@@freckledcatcreations Thanks!
Amazing skills !💗
Thank you! 😊
holy cow, so much work
haha definitely... see why fursuits are priced so high nowadays? XD
I probably won't ever make proper sockpaws, but giant floofy slippers are absolutely on my list! A question: when you glue the sock to the bottom pad, does it have to be hot glue or would something else work, say contact adhesive (F2/E6000)?
I think you could do a contact adhesive! if you were worried about feeling the beads of hot glue under your foot tho, that's actually why I also added the thin layer of flex foam under the boot, so that there's foam between your foot and the hot glue! I don't feel it at all myself.
@@freckledcatcreations I have a... contentious relationship... with hot glue, I burn myself every time I use it! 🤣 So I was hoping for an alternative.
LOL i totally understand!! I would double check if contact adhesive works ok on foam since it's got so many holes and isnt a dense surface, but i think its worth a shot!
i dont have interfacing. What can i use instead?
you could use 1/2" foam instead!
Wow! I love these- only just discovered your channel!! I subscribed immediately! Like 319! :)
Thanks for subbing!!! hope my stuff helps you!
I don't have anything I can use so I can make the paterns bigger cause I don't have a computer and i only have a Phone that barely even works,do u know how else i could do that?
Honestly I think your only bet then is to go to your local library (or anyone who might have a scanner) and scan and resize those patterns!
@@freckledcatcreations ok,thanks
Me: aw I have none of this stuff…
Me: *goes to target and gets the wolf feet from their*
Me: where’s my super suit
Just wondering what type of fur do u use and if you use a shaver what one of those do u use sryy
I get lux shag from big z and howl fabrics usually, and I have Andis agc 2-speed shavers! for faces and toes I use a 7fc size blade!
@@freckledcatcreations thank you so much
this is so amazing!! for the liner inside, after its put in is it able to be flipped out for hand cleaning and drying, or do you think its more immobile than that after all is said and done? Thanks for the amazing and concise tutorial
Because the 1" upholstery foam it's glued to is not glued to the fur backing, you can pull it out! though I would worry about the stuffing moving around now that the liner isn't there to keep it in place, and if you put the liner back in the stuffing might end up in thewrong places/ stuck under the 1" foam rather than in the toes. it's something you gotta deal with if you make all sewn up feet like this! i do also make my removable shoe feetpaws with zippers to take the stuffing out for easier washing.
@@freckledcatcreations wonderful, thank you for your reply, thats good to know!
@@Senjamin no problem! it was a great question!
Does anyone know how to transfer patterns without a big screen like that? I'm not sure how to transfer the mockup patterns into the correct sizes
I have a tutorial just for you! how to print patterns 100% size! go check it out.
Do you by chance have a pattern to purchase for these I’d love to try and make ‘em myself
I do not, but I made the tutorial and mockup tutorial so you can develop your own pattern that's custom shaped to how you like feet to look!
Hey! I'm currently am planning to build my first fursuit but I only have EVA foam on hand with me at the moment, do you have any tips with working with EVA foam? I don't really see many videos working with it ^^'
I believe Mugiwara has a few videos on making head bases with EVA foam! you can try that! I currently only use that for the insoles of feetpaws.
Is it possible to do this without a sewing machine? I don't have one and I don't really have any money to get some so i was going to try making some myself for the first time
Do not like all hot glue but sew by hand
I don't care how long it takes 😭
you could absolutely do this by hand! I think the hardest thing to do by hand would be to applique the pawpads... gotta put your hand stitches really close together. remember you want a sturdy construction because these are feet that will be walked on, you dont want bad seamwork to pop while youre walking around the house!
Awesome tutorial! Very helpful. I have a question. I don't know all that much about fursuit making but im wonder how come no one seems to use an elastic for the cuffs of the fursuit paws? Is there a reason? Or is the material you used elastic? I just thought wouldn't an elastic keep it better fitted around your leg. Basically just want to know if there's a reason I shouldnt use it
Honestly I'm not sure why people don't use it! a reason people use fleece/minky/bias tape is to cover and protect the raw fur edge, but yea nobody really adds elastic inside the cuff. The feet do stay up pretty fine tho! the leg openings here came out a little bigger than I wanted but theyre still ok.
@@freckledcatcreations Ah, I see! That makes sense! Good to know. I'll give it a try when I attempt to make my own, for sure. Thank you ^^
I best buy some clay!
i used polymer clay (bake in the oven) for this mockup but im sure you could also use air dry clay too!
So I tried making puffy paws from mugiara cosplay and imma just say I give it 40% good success rate because I can’t complete the project because I still don’t understand how she does it like sew them together on the sewing machine and my heavy duty singer kept messing up an I literally 😤have to keep using my seem ripper to un strand it 😭 I can’t put these paws together I made I need help I don’t understand why they won’t fit together they are the right size only messed up the fur direction, that’s all , life doesn’t love me but at least god keeps giving me blessings and new beginnings 🙂
I feel like giving up my fursuit passions 🖤
sad to hear! just take your time next time when youre tracing the patterns - make sure the fur is facing the correct way! fur flows to the fingertips. as for messing up on the sewing machine - it sounds like you might need to hand sew them! use a blanket stitch or back stitch. check out my hand sewing video if you need help!
@@freckledcatcreations thanks so much and I only have 2 hand sewing knowledges I can do ladder stitch and uh the stitch when you loop it and the type of thread that I am using if from Walmart it’s a color thread that’s very good 😌 nice an bit tough to break and it can’t be taken out easily so it needs a seem ripper if something happens
The hand paws I made still look good and on my heavy duty singer sewing machine I guess I could only see the paw pads on and it doesn’t allow me to finish sewing them together and I did think about that do I need to shave the edges of hand paws all around these mittens lol so my machine won’t screw it
so could you use these as outdoor paws if you put eva foam on the bottom?
I guess you could! I honestly would prefer a shoe to be inside my outdoor feetpaws.
Cool! Thanks for the tips! :D Also I have a question, may I ask what material the white sheet is on 10:11? They're the oval shaped ones
Once I make my outdoor feetpaws, I might see if I can use the duct tape pattern to make an indoor sockpaw version too ^w^
when I list the materials at 5:13 i show you!
Sooo, is there a place where we can download this pattern???
nope, id like to keep it to myself! but I showed you how to make your own :3 this and my clay mockups video!
I don’t understand this stuff but yet I kinda noob level at it like every thing about fursuits ugh 😩 Idk how you people are mathematically good at it
Can the store Joann’s teach fursuit making?????????
@@DonateMeLol no
@@istolethispfpsorry485 what do you know
@@DonateMe I worked there before, they definitely wont ever teach fursuit making lol. but thats what youtube is for!
@@freckledcatcreations your right
Have you considered using monster clay for your mockups? It could save you alot of clay and foil in the future.
I did! But honestly I prefer working with polymer clay, and these finished mockups make excellent pattern weights when I'm done :3
Are this ok to wear outside tho? I know there indoor
Ones but are they safe to wear outside or?
No, if you want to wear them outside, you can buy fursuit sandals online
The sandals will protect the bottom of the indoor feet
Ok
Where do you buy the fur? Please answer me it will help me a lot
try Howl Fabrics, and BigZ fabrics!
How to make lining like your ?
I just grabbed a free sock/boot pattern from the internet!
Would I be able to use actual socks for the inside lining?
I suppose you could!
hello youre paws are so cool and iam wondering if its possible to find those pattern
on etsy or somewhere ?
unfortunately no, I don't want to release my pattern! but that's why I showed you how to make your own :3
You don’t have the pattern for sale?
I don't! I tell you how to make your own pattern though! So you can make feet the way you like :3
i have no foam and a scrap of fur too small. im broke ill do my best XD
Looks nice v:
How do I make the patters for the inside?
Just find any basic sock / boot pattern for the liner! it doesnt have to be fancy.
Wow early !
se podrian usar como feet paws 🤔 (en interiores xd)
¡Podrías usarlos como zapatillas de casa! hehe!!
Gracias ❤
Do you need the clay part though?
nope! you can draft your feet patterns a number of different ways! I just like to do it this way, and the finished clay mockup is a good pattern weight to keep at the end :3
Do you have a pattern available? 😍
nope, but that's why I made this video so you can make your own pattern!
How much would it be if you were willing to release your patterns to the public?
I havent given much thought to the price yet honestly! i would price it what most other feetpaw patterns are on etsy rn!
@@freckledcatcreations Which is $15 more or less... I just really like this design more than the others on Etsy. I hope you will think about selling the patterns at least.
Yay I’m early
Oh man only if i had foil, clay, foam, fur, sewing machine, and all of those i would've made those immediately- 😔
you can slowly start collecting the materials!
Trust me- I’ve wanted to make fursuits for years but really only JUST started getting the chance to do so. It takes time to get everything needed.
Some small alternatives though!!
-SOME, and it’s not super common, but SOME libraries actually offer public use sewing machines. I’d recommend checking the site of your local library, although it’s far more common in nicer or bigger cities.
- take your time and try your best to save up for nicer fur- trust me, even if it’s cheaper, craft store fur isn’t worth it. It feels very fakey and not soft at all. If you don’t mind it being a bit rougher though then I’d say it’s okay. I’d reccomend howl fabrics personally but there are a lot of other sites! (You can also get nice fur second-hand, this is just usually riskier or in scraps.)
-Some craft stores offer clay and foam for relatively cheap! You can also check Amazon to try to get deals.
-foil can just be found in most grocery stores
@@twinfastasytowers VERY good comment!!!!!
2016 told my friends I'm not a furry. I found myself here today been a furry since 2017
are you going to sell this pattern at all? i would totally purchase it!!
You know, I hadnt thought about it! Maybe in the future! I don't have an online shop set up yet XD
First!
parecen pantuflas xd
¡Las pantuflas más cómodas!
Me watching this knowing damn well I wouldn't make it
I'm sorry but WHAT IS CRONUS DOING HERE
I LIKE HIM HEHE
@@freckledcatcreations 😨
Gah
I want to make a pair of feet but I don't have the time to make a good pattern myself
look on etsy!
