Part 4 Now Posted!

You didn’t know how to respond to Mina’s message. Izuku noticed you were taking a while to get water and approached you, ensuring you were okay. You showed him the text and explained the situation. He advised that you give a truthful and straightforward answer; you guys didn’t hook up but were starting to go out. She didn’t text you back which you thought was weird because usually, Mina had quite a bit to say over text messages. You didn’t think much of it because she was probably reporting back to Uraraka. After you guys were done working out, you went by a local market and picked up a few snacks for your dorm. It was Sunday so everyone was tucked away in their rooms, rushing to finish the stack of homework they ignored all weekend. You still had some work left but were happy that most of your work was done. It allowed you to rest for tomorrow, Mondays usually were really intense when it came to training and school work. You know Izuku told you a simple answer and left to leave it at that but it was weird that she didn’t text back. You sent a message asking if everything was okay but didn’t hear back. 

The next morning, you felt very optimistic about the day ahead. This was the first day you had class since you and Izuku had made things official. You ironed your uniform and spent a little more time getting ready than usual. On your way to class, you were feeling extremely confident and prepared. All your homework was done, your hair looked great and you were well-rested. Once you got to your desk, you noticed that none of the girls were looking at you. Usually, they would sit at your desk and talk briefly until Aizawa entered the room. You started to feel a pit in your stomach form. You reassured yourself that it was just your anxiety projecting. The girls may have seemed jaded after you told Mina about your newfound romance. Izuku walked into the class and gave you a kiss on the cheek, breaking you out of your thoughts. After greeting each other Aizawa came in and handed out the assignment for the day. It was just a packet about stabilizing a victim in a high-risk area. The class reviewed the material together before suiting and doing hands-on training. 

You had just gotten your new costume that Midnight helped you design. It was a dark purple leather body suit that had rhinestones that looked like stars; you wanted it to look like the night sky. Aoyama was the first one to compliment you. This made you extremely happy because you admired his style. When the training started, Aizawa instructed that the class would be split into two teams: Heroes and Injured Civilians. The civilian is lying down in a fabricated high-risk area. The hero would then stabilize and carry the civilian to safety. The team captains were Mina and Uraraka. It was then that you realized your gut feeling was right. You were picked last Mina which made you feel some type of way but you didn’t let it show. Izuku being who he is, volunteered first and conveniently Uraraka’s hand shot up to be his partner. You physically had to bite your tongue in order not to say anything. Behind you, a couple of the girls were snickering which was really driving you crazy. Izuku looked back at you and started the exercise. It did bother you but at the same time, you were a pretty secure girl. It’s not like he’s going to fall in love with her because he trained with her in class. It was just irritating that she was trying to make a statement, it just seemed super petty. 

“God they’re so cute,” you heard a voice squeak from behind you. 

“I know when they are going to get together,” someone else responded. 

You then moved on to basic attack training. This time Aizawa was in charge of making the pairs which made you let out a sigh of relief. You were paired with Kirishima, and part of you felt smug because you knew him and Mina had a thing. At the same time, you didn’t want any type of problem and obviously didn’t feel the need to be shady. You were throwing attack after attack and it was apparent he wasn’t budging. He wasn’t even breaking a sweat while you were fighting as hard as you could when you reached your limit and excused yourself for a water break. He complimented you on how far you’ve come and you thanked him. The next exercise was two teams against each other, essentially playing capture the flag against each other. Mina started hailing down attacks on you, yes she would let up here and there but damn. It was starting to feel really personal, you were dodging and were proud to say none of her acid got on you. You were sweating and breathing heavily as you pulled your hair into a bun. The class was then dismissed for the rest of the day and all the students made their way to locker rooms. As you were changing you could hear Mina talking about your new suit. 

“Oh, you don’t like how it looks? I figured you were trying to get my attention because why would you be talking about me when I’m 4 feet away,” you said pulling your hoodie over your head. 

“I was just pointing out that your costume seemed to change right after you got with Deku. I wonder if there’s a correlation,” she said, packing her bag up. 

“You knew I was getting my costume redesigned with Midnight because I’m planning on being her sidekick when I get my permit. So no need to wonder, save that energy for your training,” you said. 

“I just think it’s convenient for you and Deku-” she started when you interrupted. 

“Oh my- do you want to date him? Do you stalk him? I just don’t know why you have such an obsession with us. If you don’t want to be with him then don’t talk to me about it Mina. If a certain somebody has an issue then surely they’ll come tell me about it right? Okay then,” you said, turning your head to Uraraka who made eye contact with you for a second before looking away. Throwing your backpack over your shoulder you walk through the doors. Izuku was waiting for you outside the boy’s locker room, he could tell in your face that you were upset. 

“What’s wrong? Are you hungry?” he asked, offering you the other half of his sandwich that he was about to eat. 

“Just unnecessary drama that Mina is trying to pull me into,” you huffed while taking a bite. 

“About us?” he asked, nodding your head in agreement. 

“What about though did like- Uraraka say something?” he asked. 

“No I think Mina is trying to like- I don’t know, confront me for Uraraka because she doesn’t want to,” you sighed. 

“That’s weird, why doesn’t Uraraka just talk to you or me even?” he asked. 

“What’s what I told her before I left? I don’t want to talk about this anymore, it’s just too much to handle right now,” you said. 

You walked back to the dorm talking to each other about different homework assignments. Also considering different plans for the upcoming weekend. Once you were in your bedroom you immediately turned on the shower. Today was not only physically straining but mentally as well. You were already feeling a little homesick and now you feel super uncomfortable. That sick feeling in your stomach when you know people are talking about you. You stepped in and felt gross when you could taste the sweat on your upper lip. You went to turn up the hot water and realized it was as hot as it was going to get. Turning your body, you looked up at the ceiling and let the water run down on you. Dissociating here and there while thinking about various things. After getting out and doing your skincare routine, you hear your phone go off from your bed. It was Izuku letting you know that everyone was gathering in the kitchen for dinner. You brush your hair, throw on some comfortable clothes and make your way out there. Everyone was already in a line with their plate, waiting to get their serving. You stood in line with Izuku leaning against him as time went on. 

Everyone was sitting around, either on the sofa or sitting on the ground next to the coffee table. Izuku was sitting on the couch and you were sitting on the floor between his legs. He playfully rested his plate on top of your head for a second which made everyone laugh. You noticed Mina giving you dirty looks but ignored it, you didn’t want to make a scene. Mina however was feeling quite confrontational. Everyone was talking among themselves but she spoke just above the general volume of chatter.

“So Y/N where did you head off too after the dinner we had on Saturday? I stopped by your room but nobody was there,” Mina said, pretending to be clueless. You knew she was referring to the night that everyone thought you and Izuku hooked up. You were about to respond but he beat you to it. 

“Mina why do you keep asking Y/N about me. Don’t play dumb about it because you texted her and asked about what happened that night. So it’s pretty clear you;re only asking her to be petty,” he said, setting his plate down. Everyone was now starring, Mina’s face was bright red, the same as yours. 

“I just- you lead Uraraka on. You know she doesn’t have the courage to tell you, especially after you hurt her-” Mina started. 

“You can’t be seriously accusing me of purposely hurting Uraraka by getting with Y/N. I’m not with her for the same reason I didn’t know she liked me, she won’t communicate. Even now you’re trying to have a problem with my relationship on her behalf. It’s weird, now you’re giving Y/N a hard time because we're together? Oh but you wanna be a hero right?” he asked rhetorically, his voice raising. 

“Alright just chill out guys,” Kirishima said. 

“I’m completely chill, it’s not like I'm saying anything that isn’t true,” Izuku said. 

Everyone was feeling awkward now, especially because Izuku never got mad at other students. 

“You’re telling me not to speak for Uraraka but you’re speaking for Y/N right now!” Mina said standing up and taking a step or two towards the both of you. 

“Um.. I told you in the locker room that if Uraraka had an issue she would have come to me about it. You texted ME and asked if we hooked up, I thought you were asking as a friend not to spread my information around. Seriously, what is your problem?” you asked while standing up and taking a step towards Mina. 

You were now arguing at each other, nobody being able to understand what was being said. Pointing fingers at each other, getting louder and slowly getting closer. Izuku was now in between you and Mina, that’s when Kirishima got in front of Izuku. Once they started arguing, Bakugo got in between them pushing them apart. Both boys stormed off and the entire class disbanded. This was horrible, the one fear you had was that dating him was going to cause drama. Izuku starts pacing in the hallway so you lead him to your dorm. He was bright red and breathing hard, he sat on your bed and you joined them. 

“I’m so sorry that all this drama is happening,” you said. 

“It’s not your fault. Mina has always been over dramatic. She shouldn’t be rude to you on Uraraka’s behalf,” he reassured you. 

“I know but I still feel bad especially because you ended up getting into it with Kirishima,” you sighed. 

“It’s really not that serious. Kiri is a cool guy, I'm sure he won’t be bothered,” he said. 

“Hopefully now there won’t be a problem, now that everything's out in the open,” you said. 

“Yeah, it’s not like you started it,” he said. 

“Thank you for defending me, I made me feel really secure,” you said. 

“Well of course, You’re my girlfriend,” he said, giving you a peck on the lips, you giggled and moved a piece of hair out of his eye. You got a knock on the door and when you answered, Uraraka was standing playing with her hands. 

“Can I talk to you?” she asked you to step out of the room, leaving Izuku inside.

This is a Spider-Gwen jumpsuit I made!

Happy Halloween! I made this bodysuit and I'm super happy with it!

I'm gonna break down step by step what i did but I'm NOT a professional cosplayer or seamstress or fashion designer or anything. This is just to document what I've done in case it could help somebody else!

Materials used:

Scuba hex white (2 yards, available at Joann or Cosplay Fabrics International)

Scuba hex black (2 yards, same as previous links)

Web pattern on Spoonflower (make sure to order it printed on spandex!)

Three zippers (one for the bodysuit, two for the arms)

7mm snap buttons for the collar

Wig from @ardawigscanada so I don't actually have to style it as I am lazy and bad at wig styling

Step One: PATTERNING

I used several patterns as a base:

Yaya Han's Ultimate Bodysuit Pattern for the general design (McCall's M7217)

The Yaya Han pattern with a baseball jersey shirt for the arm sleeves (McCall's M7554)

McCall's M7486 for the hood (or you can trace a hood from a sweater of your choice)

Step Two: DRAFTING

First I tested out the bodysuit pattern solely on its own on some cheap stretchy fabric just to make sure it fits. I find that their smallest size fits me well as I am definitely a very stringy person. But the bodysuit was a bit short so i needed to extend the torso parts.

Then I trace out new patterns and draw the Spider-Gwen design on top of them, and cut.

BUT WAIT THERE'S MORE!!!

I wasn't sure if that would fit me either so I made ANOTHER mockup of the pattern I drafted out of scrap fabric (basically the web pattern I ordered but in the wrong size because I am dumb and I don't check things). Turns out this was a GOOD IDEA because this came out too loose! The fabrics I got were veeeery expensive so I'd rather be safe than sorry!

Step Three: COMMENCE SEWING! (AND HAIR PULLING)

After making the adjustments to my paper patterns, I held my breath and started on the bodysuit proper. Hoping that I don't fuck everything up.

I started with the easy stuff, which were the front panels:

So far so good! I didn't use any special types of stitches, just regular straight stitch. I read that other cosplayers may use zigzag stitches for stretchy fabric but I have very little sewing experience and I do NOT trust my sewing machine at all. Just do what you're comfortable with and you'll be fine!

And important note! Make sure you stretch your fabric slightly while sewing! It's supposed to be a stretchy suit after all!

Back panels were a pain, but I got it done... there was a lot of thread pulling and hair pulling and questioning my life choices involved.

then I sewed the sides together! The white and black parts don't align perfectly but you can't really tell in this picture 😅

After that, I sewed the web parts onto the sleeves and the sleeves to the shoulders. That part went surprisingly smoothly so I'm just going to move on. Sorry for the lack of images but there's a photo limit on this website.

Step 3.1 Gloves!!!

Okay so I got a separate pattern for the gloves and also left them to basically the last minute to finish as they're so goddamn difficult!

This tutorial helped me out so much!!!

As you can see in these pictures, my first attempt came out a bit too loose. But it was an easy fix. I just had to take in the thumb and the pinky and it fit reasonably well on my hand.

And I also installed zippers on the seams of my sleeves so I can easily remove my gloves while still keeping them attached to the jumpsuit. This is why this project needed three zippers.

Step 3.2 Collar

And finally, the collar. This almost made me gave up on the entire project.

Right after I sewed the hood on, I was well on my way to finishing, or so I thought!

Because I was combining two different patterns with two different types of collars, I needed to figure out how to make them fit together. there were many MANY failed attempts.

Eventually what I did was I cut out two curved trapezoid shaped things out of the white scuba fabric, sewed that to the top of where the hood connects to the bodysuit, and then sewed the collar on top of that. This made sure that the fabric actually conforms to my neck area.

I placed down a t-shirt to trace the curvy trapezoids, and also make sure you measure your neck area appropriately!

CLOSING THOUGHTS

So yeah that's basically what I did. I admit I was too lazy to dye my flats in order to make her ballet flats but I'm sure that's easy compared to this mess! Anyway my Converses worked in a pinch.

Thank you for reading! Good luck and Happy Halloween!

[wakinguponsaturday]

Almost a year to the day after first asking @its-sixxers if I could print out and bind Half Light (after figuring out how one actually does that), I've finally finished it!!!

She's 825 pages long, has some of the early pages warped from glue, and blood (?) staining the text block, and I am so excited to fall in love with Nines and Mary all over again. Thanks for letting me do this, it's been a really rewarding project and I got a new hobby out of it!!!

Please go read Half Light and everything else Six has written, she is immensely talented. Mary is my favourite character in Bloodlines bar none and reading her story endeared me to VTMB when the game itself did not. Six's Fallout works are also masterpieces, and I haven't checked out her newer stuff with Elder Scrolls but I fully intend to because even if I've never touched a Skyrim game in my life, I know I'm going to adore it too!

More info about the process under the cut.

SeaLemon was an invaluable resource starting out here because I barely know how to sew and I had no idea how to approach the actual construction of a book. I'm gonna plug her right off the bat because she's very beginner-friendly if anyone else wants to learn.

But before all of that I had to format everything in Word! Chapter by chapter I copied the text over from the downloadable PDF from AO3 and would scan through the fic to ensure the formatting was correct (italicization, bolding, paragraph breaks, etc). I'd do this for about an hour at a time over the course of a couple months, until I decided to do the rest of it all at once after one March night at 10PM where I decided to learn how to bind it all, because fuck it, why not. (Answer: I was freaked out about my upcoming departmental talk and this seemed like a good distraction).

Printing all of it just on regular printer paper (don't know if I'd do that again in the future, but it's what I had on hand) it ended up being 52 signatures, or collections of 16 pages (4 pieces of paper) folded in half. Pierced holes in all of those using an awl and an old phonebook to hold the pages open, and then used my old embroidery thread to sew them together. This part took me maybe two days because I was just so damn pumped about it lmao. I also don't have any kind of bookpress to weight down the pages, so I had made due with old textbooks and MCAT prep material.

It stayed this way for LITERAL MONTHS as I gathered all the other supplies - chipboard and brushes from my local craft store, PVA glue online, and by far the hardest part was fabric. I've since learned that you can make your own fabric using book cloth and basically anything you want (if I had known this book would have been coated in red silk I swear) but for now I just wanted to be sure it was something designed for this purpose, as the woman at Fabric Land assured me it needed something specialized. So binder's buckram! Took a while to find something local and the color selection was pretty limited, I was hoping for a dark red or a dark blue but the green was the best they had in stock. Took even longer to get here. And by that point I had enough going on that it fell by the wayside until uh.... last week.

I glued the spine, again realizing that maybe I should've just made my own bookpress but powering through with textbooks to hold things in place, and let that sit for a couple days to fully dry. Ideally it would be flat, but beggars cannot be choosers. Gave her a lil ribbon too.

Not pictured because I forgot, the final text block with black construction paper glued to it to form the inside cover (would probably use something thicker/crisper in the future, something more like cardstock perhaps?). But then it came to putting the cover together! And that was just cutting chipboard to fit and gluing it correctly onto the fabric, leaving gaps around the spine.

Let that dry, and then I glued the text block in and let everything sit for just over 24h, again with makeshift weights to prevent the fabric warping (it's the second book from the bottom).

And then tada! Finished book! (This one's from before it was pressed but it looks the same now)

All in all extremely cool to hold in my hands and I look forward to the next fic that makes me this insane. If I get permission to do The Sun Is Now Fading I might take a crack at that and make a little set! Follow your dreams and one day you too will be able to take notes in the margins of your favourite Vampire the Masquerade fic.

A relatively quick and quite experimental crochet project to kiiinda start the year off; a crochet bag from scrap yarns! (And other scrap materials now that I think about it)

So I had some yarn left over from my blanket of darkness (I can't believe the rounds that post is making, what on earth), one untouched ball of black yarn and then three balls of yarn I had used misc amounts of. I knew right away there wouldn't be much yarn there for any big project, I did kinda considder just making myself a simple scarf but right now I'm actually in the middle of knitting four scarves to give out to family on Christmas* so between the reality that I probably wouldn't wear a striped scarf in these particular colors and me having enough scarf projects to do anyways... yeah, the idea wasn't particularly appealing

*(GOTTA GET STARTED EARLY, also it's the misc yarn I bought when our yarn shop was shutting down, the stuff I have no idea what to do with. Currently on Scarf 2, I'll probably share photos when all four are done. Eventually. Knitting is slow. So slow I had to do a crochet project between the first two scarfs because I was losing my marbles.)

Now I have Instagram so I can post art there once every six months, I'd hardly considder myself like an Insta user, but sometimes it is kind of nice to browse the things Insta reccomends because there are some lovely things posted on there. A while back, this post of these crochet bags got reccomended to me and they have been haunting me ever since. Like look at them, they're really pretty. And yeah, when I was wondering what I could do with these scrap yarns in particular... The idea of trying to make a bag seemed really fun

And specifically, making a crochet bag with a lining on it, so it'd be like, actually kind of usable. I've never made a bag, not a crochet one nor a sewn one, and I didn't want to up any tutorials or help on how to make a lined crochet bag either, I wanted to just wing it and figure it out by myself (for better or worse) (mostly worse)

So I started the project by just making the actual crochet part of it

This whole thing involved a lot of math, trial and error to figure out the Max Size of the bag I could make (also I wanted to a round bag for some god forsaken reason) with the yarn I had. I didn't have too much of this specific yarn, and I didn't want to buy any more, just use what I already had.

At the time I thought it'd be a good idea to make the "backside" of the bag a plain black, since not only the largest amount of yarn I had was black, but also because it'd be the "inside facing side" that you'd theoretically never see if I wore the bag. In hindsight I regret that decision but we'll get back to that later

I did try out a few different color layouts, tested how many stripes of what colors I could do with the yarn I had (again, math), for some reason this was the one I liked the most though (don't ask me what the numbers mean I can't remember anymore) (something about the stitches/rounds), though I did add one more round since I had just enough yarn for it

But, here is how my pieces turned out. At this point, I had no yellow yarn left and only a Very Very Small Amount of white and black, not enough to do any more rounds or make the bag or the bottom piece bigger/longer, but just enough for some sewing later on

But, with the pieces completed, it was time for me to do the lining

I've had this black fabric for years now, I got it for some project that I never actually did so it had been just sitting around, collecting dust for years, so I'm glad I finally got around to using it.

I laid it down, put the crochet pieces on top, traced them and cut 'em ✂️✨ Followed by sewing them together, a process I did not bother to take photos of because it wasn't particularly interesting.

((Also I had to take a massive break at one point because I realized I really actually needed my mom's serger but that thing was covered in decades worth of tobacco, dust and grime so it needed to be cleaned bad. There was no way in hell I was putting my fabric pieces on that filthy thing. (Also I've never used a serger before so I had to look up tutorials how to use it jdfhjkdfg)))

Once I had put the lining together I washed it (just to get any excess dust and cat hair off it) and ironed it ✨

It looks like an absolute mess, lmao, you can tell I don't do sewing (it almost looks like a tulip... And man, a tulip shaped bag could be super cute...)

But it's fine, because this lining's getting covered in crochet pieces >:)c So ain't nobody gonna see the wonky sewing once it's done! (Also to be fair, big part of the reason it looks horrendous here is because the fabric itself was like, quite floppy. Like there's nothing to hold it up and keep its structure and shape at this point)

Now, one important thing needs to be addressed here. Although at the time I thought this was the best way for me to make the bag, in hindsight I know I should've done the opposite.

I thought it'd be easier for me to first sew the fabric together and then sew the crochet pieces on top, mainly because I believed it'd be harder for me to try to do sewing if the fabric pieces also had the crochet pieces attached to them. Like they'd add bulk to the fabric and increase the risk of me sewing over the crochet and somehow damaging the crochet and/or my sewing machine (or something, I dunno).

And while in theory that might be true, I now know that I would've gotten a much nicer, cleaner looking bag if I had sewed the crochet pieces onto this fabric first, because then I would've been able to add an extra inner lining. You'll see why that would've been prettier a bit later

I just want to point this out because while the way I made the bag works just fine for me, it's not the ideal way to do it, it's not the smartest nor the prettiest way to do it, and I can't reccomend it to anyone. Just wanted to give out this disclaimer, do as I say, not as I do lmao

Anyway, with the lining done, I started working on attaching the crochet onto the fabric with the bottom piece, first pinning it down and then hand sewing it onto the fabric.

Then I did the side pieces. I was careful to start from the middle of each crochet piece, slowly moving outwards to the edges as I was attaching the pieces, leaving the edges unsewn for now...

...because next, I wanted to sew the crochet pieces together. The crochet had more stretch to it, so I figured first sewing them together and then attaching the edges of the crochet to the lining would result in a cleaner look.

Sadly I didn't have much/any yarn left to so I couldn't crochet the crochet pieces together, somekinda slipstitch would've looked much cleaner and prettier, but with the little yarn I had left I didn't want to risk running out in the middle and having to unravel it or something.

So yeah, not particularly pretty, but it worked. And with that done, it was time for me to add a strap to the bag, before I'd go finish sewing the crochet pieces onto the fabric! You'll see why I did this now!

So I had some random ass, thin, black yarn leftover from... something, so I figured I could use some of that up and I did! I made tiny crochet straps and slipped small metal rings (from my mom's hoard) on them, and sewed them onto the bag

Specifically sewed them onto the fabric, didn't want them to be visible on top of the crochet lining (which is why the edges around the bag's opening were still unsewn at this point)

And in the spirit of using things I already had, I have these two straps from one of my old goth pants (though they're actually shorts now). And they just happened to be like, the perfect lenght for an over-the-shoulder bag

No the metals don't match but beggars can't be choosers and it's fiiiiiiine. What matters is that I got a free bag strap without having to make one >:)c

One last thing I did was add some buttons to the bag to hold it closed. I wasn't originally going to add anything but when I tried the bag on, I realized it was just a little too floppy on the opening. I didn't want to try to figure out how to add a zipper or anything, so I grabbed these ancient buttons (from my mom's hoard) and sewed three of them onto the bag, so it holds its shape better

Finished sewing crochet pieces onto the fabric and finished up the very very outer edges as well, and the bag was pretty much done!

Indeed. The inside looks like ass. Although it's mainly just the white yarn that I used, since I didn't want the sewing to be too obvious on the outside I tried to match the thread I used for the sewing to the part of the crochet I was attaching. If I had an inner lining, the inside would look much nicer since all of this would be hidden underneath it, but at this point there was no way in hell I was going to rip these pieces apart just to add a lining, nah, it's fine, it's good enough for me and good enough for my first bag. But yeah, if you want to make a bag, learn from my mistake here

But, with all that done, the bag was done!

And yeah, here you can see why I regret doing the colors the way I did. More specifically, I regret making the bottom white. Like, I thought it would look cool and interesting, and I thought it'd be a waste of the white yarn to use it on "the backside" (the side noone would ever see), and I didn't have enough yarn to make the bag symmetrical on both sides (at least not without severely down playing the part of the yellow yarn in the design).

But in the end, because the bag doesn't hold its shape SUPER WELL, it makes the bottom piece more visible than I expected it to be. Like sewing on the crochet parts did add some structure to it, but it doesn't hold the tin cookie jar shape the way I had hoped it would. So the bottom is much more prominent because of that, and because the bottom part has like, some interest to it with the contrasting colors and whatever, it draws in the eye even more. Like, I really should've just made the bottom piece pure black and used whatever leftover yarns I had to make the backside of the bag.

But, it is what it is. I've made my mistake and now I get to learn from them!

In anycase, here is the bag, despite looking like an absolute mess and not turning out the way I had hoped it would, it still turned out pretty cute.

SHEER COINCIDENCE, I realized that I had this ancient little extra pocket thing (possibly from the same old goth pants as the strap, though I'm not sure, I can't remember) which just HAPPENED to be the exact same size/width as the bag. Like, I did not plan for that at all, but it's the perfect size, so I can straight up just keep the pocket on this bag and use it as an extra, separate compartment if I need one. Lmao, what are the odds

Also the strap from my old pants really is like the perfect lenght for this bag (/me, since I'm short, and it's not adjustable or anything)

Weirdest thing about this project is that it hasn't made me want to make more crochet bags, but it did make me want to learn to do embroidery so I could make custom embroidered bags jkdfhjahgfdg

(Disclaimer, the yarn part of the bag is 100% wool, I don't want to have to deal with washing it, and I don't want to get it dirty, so realistically, I am never going to wear this bag outside dfjghsdjfgh)

[nightroo]

May or may not have forgotten what I posted here myself months ago so the last post had a few repeats. oops.

Well I know for sure this one won’t because I stopped posting when I started the second semester, which is what this post is about. So the drawing above is the start of working with more complex shapes, using the ones we learned from last semester. This is also where things got interesting, since I could see the potential for architectural drawings.

There are a lot, and I mean A LOT of drawings like these in my sketchbook, I’m gonna show you only the ones I find interesting.

After that we went back a bit for cast shadows, which I have decided are my new mortal enemy in art. A long time ago it was rendering hair, but that’s nothing compared to this.

The amount of calculations you need to do for this and the different formulas for each shape make me wanna rip my hair off. And that’s before getting into more complex shapes.

They're not 100% correct but my teacher said the majority of people won’t notice anything wrong so I shouldn’t worry about it. I won’t until I need it for a personal project, then I’ll get very annoyed again.

After that nightmare I got rewarded with finally using colors to render for the first time!!! I love rendering with colors so I was very excited haha

The copper (right middle sphere) is my absolute favorite, and my teacher really liked it as well.

We also had a small lecture on arrows and ribbons/fabric and we got to render them with colors as well.

For all the colored drawings I used a combination of alcohol markers and colored pencils. The markers melted and blended the pencils and I could use this to mix colors I didn't have. For example, I didn’t have a red marker at all.

After that we had a fun exercise where we needed to either study an object or design our own. The purpose was to use the previous lessons about shapes in perspective, and the rendering of different materials. I went with a gun design, but not just any gun-this one is technically 3 guns, a pistol and an SMG that you can connect and form an assault rifle. So I designed each gun separately (somehow I managed to turn this exercise to designing 3 objects instead of one, leave it to me to make it harder on myself lmao), and thought about how they connect, making sure the chambers kinda align and stuff like that.

I don’t wanna brag but I got the highest grade in the class for this assignment. Mostly because I’m the only one that actually rendered the different materials (or tried to), but also because my teacher liked the idea and thought it was interesting, and something people would actually buy if it was real.

It’s not the best but I literally didn’t have a grey marker so I was pretty limited. I chose a stained-glass theme for some reason, I didn’t want to make it a normal looking gun. The scan made it a bit more contrast-y than it is irl.

After a huge break we came back and had one lesson of silhouettes, something I kinda knew but never went out and made studies of. The challenging part of this was the time limit, at the start we had a minute, but it went down to 30 seconds. We were allowed to go overtime but it wasn't considered good.

On the same lesson, we also had life drawing, using each other as models. We had to get the pose down in one minute, and then take that as a reference for a more detailed drawing. I chose to completely change the context at that point lol

The next lesson was about isometric perspective. I don’t think I’ve actually talked about this here, but I got scammed by a guy who asked me to make him a city island in isometric perspective, then when it came time to pay, he “took a vacation” for two weeks. Came back to tell me he’s definitely gonna pay me. Proceeded to disappear. Anyways I haven’t done isometric from that moment until this lesson, where we were given a prompt word and had to draw an environment following it. I used only colored pencils for this one because I forgot to bring my markers, but it was a nice restriction to only use 12 colors and try to combine them to make the rest. I really enjoyed this one since I got the freedom to make something cool.

(the prompts are top-to-bottom forest, COVID-19, underwater and space) my teacher walked up to my desk to see what I’m doing while I worked on the space one, and he said “you are crazy” every time he passed by. He showed everyone’s work around, and a lot of people liked mine :) The space one is based on a black hole btw, but if it was an eldritch horror.

The last lesson was a time for the teacher to review everyone’s work one by one, so most of the time we were waiting for our turn. He put up a pic of an old camera if any of us wanted to draw it, but I used it as a reference for a building because it reminded me of art deco architecture. After finishing that, I had an idea for a shrine kind of place, inspired by a spot I built for a friend’s minecraft server that we didn’t end up using. And I topped it off with Lykena and Eivrun sketches (that for Eivrun might turn into a full painting when it’s her turn)

The entire year my teacher was occasionally asking me if I’m not getting bored, because we were going through a lot of basics I was obviously proficient at already, but I always found something new to learn, no matter how small, even on topics I practiced a lot before. So I’d say this workshop was very useful for me. And besides, it’s always good to get critiques from a professional, and from people who are interested in art.

Shattering Misconceptions About Sheet Metal Laser Cutting

Any laser cutting company can tell you that manufacturing technology is evolving incredibly quickly. Because of that, people tend to think that they know exactly how sheet metal laser cutting works when they really aren't quite as up-to-date as they might think. Sometimes people have misconceptions based on ideas that used to be true but that aren't any more. Some were born out of total misunderstanding in the first place.

Regardless, eliminating a lot of the myths and misconceptions about sheet metal laser cutting is the best way to fully understand how to wield the full power of this tech-based manufacturing revolution to your advantage.

The Truth About Sheet Metal Laser Cutting: Breaking Things Down

Perhaps one of the biggest myths about sheet metal laser cutting has to do with the idea that these machines are so sophisticated that they can do just about anything. This likely has to do partially with the champions of the technology that have sung its praises far and wide over the years... coupled with the fact that "laser cutting" just sounds a lot more futuristic than it really is.

The reality of the situation is that, as is true in all other areas of manufacturing, there are types of materials that are great candidates for laser cutting and there are those that aren't. PVC, for example, actually gives off fumes that could be potentially dangerous when cut by a laser - meaning you'll want to investigate alternative options. In other situations, you may be able to work with very thin sheets of material like polycarbonate but the thicker you get, the more difficult things become.

Another common myth about sheet metal laser cutting has to do with the idea that the machines themselves are inherently dangerous. Again, a lot of this probably stems from the use of the term "laser" and the lofty ideas people tend to associate with it.

So long as you A) follow the safety protocols the same way you would with any other piece of manufacturing machinery, and B) avoid material-based issues like the PVC complication outlined above, laser cutting machines are perfectly safe. They're also very easy to operate, as a lot of the modern day machines come with software and user interfaces that are equal parts intuitive and easy-to-use.

Let Our Team Help With Your Next Big Sheet Metal Fabrication Project

What is Cricut Maker 3?

This Maker 3 is a digital crafting machine that uses a design app (Design Space) and a variety of tools that allows you to do a fantastic craft project. This cutting machine is so smart that many things wouldn’t possibly be done with scissors alone.

✂️ Project Overview ✂️

Pattern: self-drafted from All-in-Motion Athletic Tank Size: Small Est. Time: 10-15 hrs. Fabric:

Silver jersey knit w/ all-over circle sequins

Ileana metallic black textured faux leather

Metallic ruby red polyester spandex

Shiny elastic trim (black)

🧵 Summary 🧵

A few weeks ago I saw a friend of mine tweet out to our extended cosplaying friends network for assistance in creating a piece for the Beyoncé Renaissance tour. I was very intrigued, so I reached out and he told me he wanted to evoke Bey's custom Loewe bodysuit in a tank style shirt. Looking at the suit, I knew that the fabric was going to be the make-or-break for this project. So I started hunting.

Thankfully, I found this stunning metallic sequined jersey over at Mood. It caught the light beautifully, and was extremely soft on the wrong side of the fabric making it very comfortable to wear.

Leaning into that metallic sheen, as opposed to utilizing sparkly fabrics, helped to elevate this piece and keep it from looking too costume-y.

(Also quick shoutout to Mood Fabrics for having such big swatches. I ended up being able to cut all of the nail appliques out of a single swatch, with plenty leftover.)

Once we found our fabric, the next step was finding a pattern. I had my client go purchase a stretch material tank that fit him the way he wanted, and then copied it.

I really took my time with this since the fabric was stretchy and it really paid off. The final fit on my client was perfect and almost an exact match the tank he purchased.

This was also my first time copying an item, and despite how fiddly it was I am hoping that I can try this again with some of my wardrobe items that are starting to fall apart.

Getting the sequined jersey through my machine wasn't the most pleasant experience, but it worked okay. Serging the main seams ended up working really well, since the threads covered the sequins and kept the inside from being too scratchy.

Overall, the most challenging part was binding the edges of the neck and arm holes. I used some 1/2' wide elastic like double fold binding, sewing down one edge on the inside of the garment, and then folding it over the front to finish with a zig-zag stitch. By itself it was a lot of bulk to push through the machine, but keeping the holes (which were cut on the bias in places) from stretching was my highest priority. I only ended up with a couple of puckers in the neckline, and fearing what would happen if I unpicked things, I decided to call that a win and move on to the appliques.

The hands were patterned off my own hands. I pinned the pattern to the tank and traced my hands to get a general idea of the placement. Then I built my patterns with joints so I could play around with them.

Once I finalized my shapes, I cut the hands out of a 1-way stretch metallic pleather (making sure that the stretch of the pleather matched the stretch of the jersey). Since all of the materials were stretchy, and the fabrics I was trying to attach were heavily sequined and pleather, I had decided from the beginning to treat the hands as appliques. I made sure when purchasing my swatches to check if the pleather and spandex for the nails didn't fray or have any issues when cut so I didn't have to worry about finishing their edges.

I used Tulip Applique Bond to attach the arms and nails to the tank, and it worked fantastically. Again, since I was attaching two stretchy materials I opted to use a dot pattern so that there was still lots of flexibility for the large appliques.

I really wanted to make sure that the glue bonded well, so in an attempt to find something heavy to keep on the appliques overnight I ended up using a bunch of gaming pieces and dice like pie weights.

After drying for 24 hours she was finished! Overall, this project was a very fun challenge and I think I learned a lot.

I experienced a ton of firsts:

first time drafting a pattern off an existing garment

first time sewing with stretchy fabric

first time working with sequined fabric

first time working with large appliques

But most importantly, I loved building something with my client that he ended up loving.

Happy sewing ✂️🧵✂️🧵,

Mrs. Crow

What You Need to Know About TPU Extrusions: Your Guide

When it comes to custom plastic extrusions, one of the most important things to keep in mind has to do with your choice of materials. Only by understanding the precise needs of your project will you be able to work your way back to the material that will check all critical boxes on your list. For many of our own customers, TPU extrusions are a solution they depend on for a number of reasons that are absolutely worth a closer look.

TPU Extrusions: Breaking Things Down

Short for "thermoplastic polyurethane," TPU is a type of material called an elastomer. It's commonly used in a wide range of different applications, including for side molding and supports in a lot of modern vehicles. It's also great for seals, belting, gaskets, and more.

This is in large part because TPU brings with it a number of benefits that make it ideal in many different conditions. It has low temperature flexibility, for example, and is both abrasion and wear resistant. These make it a particularly long-lasting option for a component that will operate under harsh conditions, like the drive belt on a car. It's also got high chemical resistance when compared to alternatives, which is why it's often used for the purposes of things like seals and gaskets.

Note that TPU extrusions are also used to help create everything from components for industrial conveyors, essential medical devices that are regularly providing life-saving care to patients, and even items in the sporting goods industry. Overall, TPU is slightly softer than some harder plastics, but that makes it more flexible as well. It's also not as soft as options like silicone or even rubber.

One of the reasons why TPU extrusions in particular have become so popular is because TPU is often compounded with other materials to expand their own natural properties. If you need to increase the strength of something in a custom way before you mass produce a component, or if you're designing an innovative new component for a car and need to worry about things like fuel or oil resistance, custom TPU extrusions can absolutely leave one less thing on your plate to worry about.
