Lhabrys is COMPLETE! This serval dragon has tested my skills to the max. So many hours appliquing, meticulous detail work, ultimate customization. I'm in love with him, and very thankfully, so is my client!

You know, sewing heavy duty fabrics like faux fur for almost 10 years really comes in handy when you need to fix your couch! This was an easy fix, but it showed me how even if you think your moderately expensive couch is well made, it really isn't. #seamstress #selkiesews #couchcouchcouch #zipper

One single claw will take me about 15mins...and that's being generous. So 8 claws x 15 mins = 120 mins....2 HOURS it took to get these all on! It's a good thing I love my job! #selkiesunday #fursuitmaker #handsew #seamstress #furry

Embroidery without an embroidery machine! Wish I had one though! Sewing up claws today and lots of sewing which I didn't film because this took 30mins condensed to 40 seconds haha #fursuitmaker #selkiesuits #embroidery #sewing #seamstress

Time to cut off all the excess around the base! This 45 second clip took about 25mins to do. There's honestly so much hidden things about fursuit making that you don't even think about, it's not all fur and foam, there's so many processes and skills you need to do this job #fursuitfriday #paws

Cuties 😍

FELLOW FURSUIT MAKERS! I'm desperately trying to colour match a discontinued fur. 9AJ "Red" from Futrasztuczne, is a really deep hot pink, not red. I've not found a shade that's remotely close. Looked at Howl, BigZ, MieMieFur & others... Any suggestions are SO welcome!!! #fursuitmaker #community

Watch me pure wrestle with the latest DTD for the new commission I'm working on! Its really well made which is a huge plus! #fursuitfriday #fursuitmaker

COMMISSION COMPLETE! This lovely plantigrade bodysuit and feetpaw upgrade was completed early this week, after which I did a studio clean up and clear out and arranged all the paperwork for these items to make their way to the US of A! #fursuitfriday #selkiesuits #fursuit #commission #plantigrade

REFINE Another sped up video, would you believe this was about 20mins of recording condensed into about a minute but the whole bodysuit took me about 6 hours straight today to get trimmed. Knackered is an understatement! #fursuitfriday #selkiesuits #fursuit #furry #scissors

Seal flippers and cute nub tail commission! These flippers have foam padding inside, webbed fingers, sewn claws, and hidden wrist escapes. Love the sheer variety of critters our clients bring us! #fursuit #fursuitmaker #harborseal

Recently I ran out of my fursuit tags and decided to kick the Scottish representation up a notch with this new design. Selkie Suits logo all day, everyday, of course but I also used Hebridean Granite Tartan for the background as it was that tartan my now husband wore on our wedding day. #branding

Bodysuit is nearing completion! Just some overlocking on the seams to do, then I can add the lined neck piece and install the tail. #selkiesuits #commission #fursuit #furry #fursuitmaker #fursuitfriday

HAND STITCHING SPEEDRUN! Sometimes the edges of some markings are too tight for machine sewing so I have to hand stitch some parts shown here. I use a strong back stitch then I hand overlock with a whip stitch. I then went in with my machine to sew the rest of the marking #wipwednesday

Due to length restrictions on here I can't post my update to my front stitch appliqué technique 😑 I've updated my method and I'm really proud of the results. If you want to check it out, please head over to my insta page! Kitty pic for cuteness reach!

🔥 1 HOUR IN 1 MINUTE! 🔥 Next up in the preparation stage of this fursuit, seam shaving! This does take hours, depending on what your preparing, but it's so worth it to reduce the bulk of fur in seams, far less brushing out and just makes sewing fur so much easier! #FursuitFriday #selkiesuits

45 minutes in 45 seconds! Fur patterning and cutting take so much longer than you think it will but once it's done you can see the puzzle that awaits you! #fursuitmaker #furryart #fursona #sewing #commission

Just a lil' guy... I'm working really hard in the evenings to get my designs for SC 2027 nailed, as I'll be back in the Dealers Den! This is 'Mae'. The idea is hardly unique but I wanted to try and hybridise a species with an emotion. So, a melancholy-collie! #fursuitfriday #premade

Patterning day! It's been a hot minute since I made a plantigrade bodysuit! Can't wait to get stuck into sewing this lad! #furry #commission #seamstress #fursona #plantigrade #fursuit

LOOK AT THEEEEEM!!!
