1998 Furby Pattern (Tail Version)

1998 Furby Pattern (Mane Version)

Do Not Crop Or Resize!

This pattern will print out proportional to a regular piece of printer paper (8.5in x 11in)! This pattern includes seam allowance! I have marked in where the ear gets sewn on, where the feet go, and to leave a portion of the ear open. Otherwise, just match up the markings! There is a note on the side piece to match squares with their mirrored position. For the ears "2 of each color" means the inner color and the outer color.

I guessed on the hair puff, so it may not be entirely accurate. However it seems to be about that size and based on the funky sewing on the inside, its a circle. PLEASE CORRECT ME IF IM WRONG AND I WILL ADJUST!

I dont yet have a pattern piece for the tail bc that requires disassembling one, which i will do when I begin my next custom.

I hope to make patterns for 1998 babies, 2005 adults, and connects before the end of the summer.

Edit: I have added the mane pattern! please note that the mane and tail version of the side piece are DIFFERENT!! You cannot use the tail side piece for a maned furby, or the skin will be too big.

Edit 2: Please don't forget to add the fabric at the bottom for the zip tie/elastic!! The band is about 1/2 inch wide, so I would suggest making the strip you cut 1 1/2 to 2 inches wide. I dont have a measuring tape on me rn, so I can't measure how long it is :/

Edit 3: Tail added! You might need to resize the tail one a bit bc for some reason the 1in reference square doesn't look the same size? Hope this helps! :)

Nubby!

We are so excited to have finished Marin's adorable tail this #FursuitFriday ! Space Birb created the 3D model which we used to make our pattern. It's a new way of working we can't wait to do again!

frieren mock up is nearly complete! i’ve been tirelessly working for 3 months on this costume. the patterning is deceptively tricky (sleeves are my enemy!)

hoping to have her complete (with staff included!) in time for metrocon this summer <3

Hello! Hope it is okay to ask for advice on this but I’m trying to make a dress with deeply weird structure, specifically Rhea’s white dress from Fire Emblem: Three Houses. It has what looks like a single box pleat at center front, but is otherwise extremely fitted. I’m trying to figure out how to get the dress to fit correctly without the extra fabric just causing it to be extremely loose at the waist.

I have some ideas of how it could be accomplished (I was thinking of adding princess seams and flat lining it to a lining without the center front pleat to try and force it to lay smooth) but I don’t know if that would work or if there’s a better approach. Similarly I was thinking of trying to add boning, but most of the patterns I’ve gone through don’t call for boning and I’m a) not sure how to add it in and b) not sure if it gets me anything for this dress.

Any advice you have would be appreciated!

Hello there!

I assume the dress on the left here? She seems to have a few outfits, but this is all I could find with what you describe.

My mind immediately went to a robe a la francaise, which has a similar pleated detail in the back, but I'm not sure if that's the effect you want.

Looking at patterns for those would probably help a lot in conceptualizing, though. It seems to be that the skirt portion has an extension in the back that goes up higher and then is sewn into the neckline, creating that flat pleated back with the space between it and the bodice, but still being integrated into the skirt.

This requires the bodice and skirt to be cut as separate pieces, however, and you may not want that. In that case.....honestly? I'd make the pleat part as a separate piece and sew it to the neckline and the hemline so it gives the illusion of being incorporated into the skirt, but doesn't require any horizontal seams at the waist. If you want a really bonkers pattern and don't mind a seam further down the skirt where it starts to flare, you can add the extension to that instead of having a waist seam.

Bad diagrams of what I mean lmao (that second one someone looks like Texas is flipping you off)

You might be able to incorporate it as the full dress? but your pattern would be absolutely whack and I wouldn't recommend it.

If you have questions or don't understand, let me know.

Hope that helps! Good luck :]

Hello! I'm looking to cosplay Noah's black military uniform from Xenoblade 3, but I'm unsure how to go about patterning the outerwear. The sweater and pants won't be an issue, but something about the jacket ensemble is really throwing me off. Any advice for someone new to patterning would be appreciated. Thank you!

Hello there!

This seems to be based off an Inverness coat, like the kind Sherlock Holmes is traditionally depicted as wearing.

I assume the part you are having trouble with is the cape assembly, which is exactly what an Inverness cape pattern will get you. The front needs to be open, which is easy to modify from almost any coat pattern with a center front opening (even a double breasted coat would be easy enough to modify to that center front opening), and it is held together in front by the belts.

The cape assembly will be the same as your pattern, but you will likely need to shorten the length of it. It also appears that the coat in question has a double cape -- I would shorten the cape pattern even further and shape it into that shape, and sew it to the longer undercape at the neck. When you sew the collar on, the edge there should be hidden.

The rest is basically changing the shapes of hems and such and adding surface decorations.

I hope that helps! Good luck :]

SEWISTS I need help

I'm trying to make a pattern for a side-seam pocket in which I can just flip the pattern on the fabric and cut out a single piece of fabric for one pocket instead of needing two. How do I go about patterning this with the curves of the pocket that rest on the fold?

Furby Connect Pattern

This pattern doesn't require being resized, and will print on regular printer paper (8.5in x 11in)!

The main body piece, batting fluff, and tail pieces are to be cut on the fold, as labeled. As for the cheek fluff and tail tip, the should cut 2 pieces. I guess you could the tail tip on the fold if you wanted, and I think it would be a semicircle-ish shape.

This pattern includes seam allowance!!!

The face portion is a separate piece of fabric that i have yet to figure out, but I will add it upon doing so! (Which I will bc I am reskinning my connect)

If something is inaccurate lmk and I will adjust the pattern!!
