Plushie related questions!
How long have you been making plushies?
I've been making plushies on and off since 2016.
Any advice for an aspiring plushie maker?
I BELIEVE IN YOU!! YOU CAN DO IT!!! Tag me in your creations!!!
Read this!! It's a beginner plushie guide by NazFX. There's A LOT that goes into plushie making.
But when you're ready for a machine I highly recommend going to your local sewing machine store and seeing what embroidery and/or sewing machine brands they service. If your machine ever breaks, or needs a tune up, it's better to be near a place that can service it rather than having to completely replace your machine!! You can also find machines for good deals on Facebook marketplace and then get it serviced.
What sewing machine do you use?
I mainly use a Juki Haruka TL-18QVP, a straight stitch only machine, but when I need different types of stitches I get out my Juki DX-2000QVP. Remember to only buy machines you can get locally serviced.
What embroidery machine do you use?
I use a Happy Japan 12 needle (HCS3-1201 VOYAGER). My first embroidery machine was a Brother PE-800. Remember to only buy machines you can get locally serviced.
What embroidery software do you use?
I've only used Wilcom Hatch Embroidery Digitizer 2. I have been using it since 2019!
What fabric do you use?
Minky.
How do you make plushie patterns?
The good old fashion trial and error with scrap fabric. When I have a 3d model I use Plushify or I tape up a 3d printed model to get a pattern to start somewhere. But I still usually have to make iterations to the pattern quite a few times before finalizing it.
Can you share "insert plushie's name" pattern?
No, unless I have publicly stated otherwise. The pattern process and creating a comprehensive guide on how to sew/embroider them, takes a lot of time.
Art related questions!What program do you use to draw?
Clip studio paint
