[quote=yuujirou;570325]ugh I hate making hoods. Hence why nothing on gloomth has a hood right now. haha.

[quote=MissMisa;570303]Aw thanks! :)

Sewing isnt too tough to learn, it takes a lot of patience and trial and error. I recommend mocking patterns up in cheap fabric or muslin prior to the good fabric you choose, I cant count how many nearly-finished-oh-gawd-the-size-doesnt-work pieces I have in my studio.

Try some basic patterns from places like Butterick/Simplicity before you launch into making patterns from scratch, then youll have an idea of what a pattern needs to function.

Oooh and sewing classes are always a good idea if you can find one near you. I wish Id taken more of them when I was younger.

[quote=gloomth;570331]Sigh.... =.=
you know...
sometimes i wish i weren't so hard headed, stubborn, and arrogant....
otherwise i'd be crawling too my gf right about now begging her too help me out w/ it x.x''
lol

youre welcome i want to dress up in lolita for holloween, but then i also want to cosplay and also want to be a harajuku. i really can't make up my mind!

OoO.....O_o i love that dress so much! it's so beautiful!!!:rheart:

[quote=yuujirou;570334]Haha! I don't let anyone help me with anything, ever! It does work for me though, since I do everything myself I think you learn better...



Orrr you just end up not bothering xD

There are actually sewing classes that I could go to. I should probably take it up but I'll be just too busy with everything unfortunatly. Argh! There is so much stuff I want to do but I know I'll have no time! I'll have to help my teacher teach Photoshop classes, then I have driving lessons, then I have night Japanese classes, and A Levels... ;_;

[quote=MissMisa;570348]true....

lool
well
if anyone is curious...
this is what i'm trying too make for a friend...
the final fabric has already been purchased (a rather high quality polyester for the body and pleather for the top panels)

was thinking of getting some mesh too line the inside of the hood
>.>
lol

[quote=yuujirou;570359]wow thats cool. Do you have to do all the sewin'? if you mind if i ask?

[quote=Pexster;570365]told my gf that i'd design the pattern and do the "simple" sewing...
whilst she'd take care of the more complicated portions xD

[quote=yuujirou;570366]wow! thats still alot to do....but with two people workin' on it, then it will go by fast. right?
