This is my first post, so I thought I'd start off by posting my three little plushies. The first is L from Death note, which I dressed him as a shinigami for my own amusement. (I think my mom posted him a while back)


And the other two..Iruka and Kakashi from Naruto ^^ I made them for a friend <3.
Kakashi has wolf ears and Iruka has cat ears :3

first of all, let me just say that your plushies are ADORABLE, and i bet they'd sell for plenty if you took them to an anime convention!!

second of all, being a huge naruto fan, i'm a bit confused by your iruka plushie... iruka sensei has black hair, in a ponytail. and i don't think i've ever seen him in a dress >_>

I'm a former cosplayer, so the prospect of using my sewing machine for something original, or outside the realm of anime/manga is pretty foreign to me. Thus, my first In Real Life project began with..

a calvin klein pillow


an extra large men's shirt


..and a vintage slip.

i almost like it better without the straps, but i'm still not sure so i sewed them on with a fairly loose, wide stitch. same goes for the ribbon, because i didn't actually have any genuine ribbon on me - i used the straps of the slip as a temporary replacement..
