Question...how do you make your patches? They seem so fuckin cool. I'm working on a vest and a jacket atm, and I'd like for them to be done by the time a pride fest rolls around next month.

Main technique I use for making patches nowadays is linocut. Its best suited for mass production of patches.

Make sure to remember your carving the mirror image so you have to flip all the text. Using tracing paper to flip the design is a good trick, as well as leaving graphite marks on side, then pressing that to the lino to leave the marks in the same spot. Another trick with pencil is to view what ur carving in negative space quickly, put a paper over your design and shade over it with pencil, darker marks will be where you haven't carved yet.

I use speedball fabric ink, it takes 1 week to set then will be fine to be washed. I have magenta, violet, turqouise, and white. They have a limited range of fabric colors at the store. I have seen gold and silver fabric paint for sale and I will investigate it one day.

I use a speedball roller, i find the smaller one to be better than the big one as I can be more precise and waste less ink.

I got a fancy handle for $40 but the screws fallen out so its broken now so just get some heavy books. I used to use a mug. Whats important is pushing your whole body weight into it.

I got a speedball carving tool with different heads I can swap out so I can cut into the lino at different deepness and widths. The heads are stored inside the tool since its hollow and has a screwable removable bottom. I use linocut or dollar store erasers for my carvings. Make sure to wash the ink off your linocuts after your done using them.

A thing to increase the lifespan of you're linocuts is to use wood glue, some cork or wood pieces, and glued the lino stamps onto them. I dont do that yet so my stamps fall appart from overuse sometime and because I cut way too deep into the lino since I hate chatter.

Chatter is the term for in linocutting when theres little messy lines and stuff. It makes the art more recognisably to be linocut. My work is very clean with no chatter which is why people don't notice its linocut usually. This is a stylistic choice, with diy styles having a lot of chatter can look really cool so experiment with leaving bits of extra uncarvered lino sticking out in ur stamp. I need to experiment and buy some more lino.

You can also use multiple linocut stamps together to make a patch. Some patches ive made have like 8 different stamps. Ive made a dog nonsense patch where each letter was their own eraser stamp. You can also use different colors between the different lino stamps on the same patch to add more color. An effect I like to do is first stamp it in color, then the next day I stamp it in white over the same spot but shifted to the right and down slightly. It makes the text have a cool border 3D effect I love doing.

If making a more detailed picture with colors, i reccomend hand painting patches. I use white fabric paint mixed with acrylics for color to get all the shades i need. Acrylic paint mixed with fabric softener works too.

If doing words and you dont want a unique font reccomend using letter stamps. If you want a unique font for that i recommend hand paint for individual or linocut for mass produce.

The positive of letter stamps is the font is neat and can be done quickly. I know from lending them to my roommate that they are very helpful if you have dyslexia and have trouble getting letters right.

A visual effect of the letter stamps is that have a nice boxy edge effect, its an imperfection that adds a personally touch to it. I have both lower and upper case stamps that I got from michaels. You can use a hair band or elastic to hold a bunch of letter stamps together to make a word stamp.

You can use other stamps than letters that you find at craft stores for example my racoon print is a craftstore stamp.

You can also find big plastic letter stencils at the dollar store that you can use to do lettering by filling in gaps with a sponge or or paintbrush. They make special paintbrushes just for using stencils.

You can also get plastic stencils in the shapes of things, i got some for children and use a horse stencil for my horse smoking weed patch. Easier than drawing a horse myself.

Another technique I use for more unique clean patches is gel plating. I haven't tried printing laserprint images with it as ive seen online a lot but I will try one day. What i personally do is use it to make imprints with chains and physical objects.

Another thing i use with gelplates are any stamps or linocuts that dont have words, or words ones that i fucked up with and forgot to mirror when carving. It flips mirror image twice with the gel plate so it goes back to being right again on the patch.

Another patch making technique is using foamboard cut into shapes glued onto cardboard. This is good for a quick test of a design and is very cheap to make. It will not hold under water so is more difficult to clean.

one single thread of craftstore beads tied her to us

If I made something for you (something knitted, sculpted, etc etc) is there anyway I could send it to you?

Asking before I enter a craftstore

I mean I don't maintain a PO box or anything so I wouldn't know how you'd arrange that. So no, I guess. Sorry.

Aizawa crochets. He makes scarves, little beanies, and gloves. Sometimes, he'll even make little plushies for Eri. The weather is getting cold and he notices his students are shivering? He somehow walks into class the following week with a box of crocheted beanies, all matching his student's hero costumes and tells them to grab the one that matches theirs.

He pins the whole idea on you. Someone asks who made all those beanies? He won't hesitate to point them towards you. Aizawa refuses to be caught— Hizashi wouldn't let him hear the end of it if he knew the truth.

Shinso rats him out. Poor boy spent an unhealthy amount of time at the craftstore during the weekend as Aizawa picked out the right colored yarn.

He sometimes makes you wear the stuff he's making. Is it too big? Too small? Are the colors looking okay?

Thank you, and welcome to my TEDtalk😌🤝🏼💖

Here’s that big project I’ve been talking about, this is Thimble, my test fan-fraggle! A couple months ago I challenged myself to create the best puppet I could using mostly just the materials I could get from regular craftstores.

I’m now working on a replica of Boober fraggle with a much higher materials budget (yay for being able to hide seams!). I’m hoping to get him done before the end of the fraggle rock exhibit up in atlanta, as it would be cool to bring him up there for a direct comparison!

[shotmrmiller]

Bringing back craftstore simon again im sorry but what if reader comes by to get some fabrics and simon didn't think much of it only for reader to come in next week (or however long it could be) and hands him a tiny keychain plushie of him

he's treasuring it forever until it begins to fray at the edges, seams holding together by pure faith, buttons falling off and by then he'll just show you that it's in literal tatters can you please make him another he'll pay for it

anyone with cfs?

I'm assuming this means chronic fatiuge syndrome and boy do I have IDEAS!!!!

Okay so I was originally going to do Bdubs but I realized Xisuma gives off the same vibes as my friend with CFS

so here we go!!

Xisuma

General Lore:

drawing from some of my favorite aus where Xisuma is a very exasperated manager/owner of a store (my favorite it coffee shops) but personally I think he would absolutley own a craftstore

is Cleo's fabric supplier

thinks his employees are hilarious but is trying so hard to be the Big Boss Manager Man and serious (he is failing)

loves doing table flower arrangments with fake flowers (it's his guilty pleasure)

actually used to work in a flower shop

loves cosplay and spends so much of his money on building cosplays

CFS Lore:

mans big sleepy

constant headaches or brain fog, no in between

he has sticky notes EVERYWHERE that remind him of things that he doesn't want to forget

uses a wheelchair and decorates it for every cosplay he does
