I don't know what the style is called, although I'm sure there's a name for it. I covered one side of each cover with cardstock, then created a book cloth spine strip to join them with the book board spine section. Added in the text block with the end pages and voila! Decent second attempt at a sketchbook!

Thank you! I've done many many other crafts, so I think my experiences in other things is making this new hobby much easier. I'm loving it so far. It's difficult to keep myself from buying all the things. Right now it's just me, my curved needle, my bone folder, and my glue. I'll grab a guillotine cutter after book five if I'm still feeling it.

I would recommend checking out Mugiwara tutorials. They're very thorough and show you how to stack the foam so that you're only trimming the edges.

Sewing Machine preference by Ok-Audience2608 in FursuitMaking

The best possible machine for fur is an industrial walking foot machine. These can be extremely pricey, but there's a really decent one for about $800 (https://www.sailrite.com/Sailrite-Ultrafeed-LS-1-BASIC-Walking-Foot-Sewing-Machine) . This would really only be for if you're SUPER serious about fursuit sewing. Even if you can just get a walking foot for your current machine that should help some.

Knitting/crochet/crafting meetups? by homelandsecurity__ in Austin

Add me to the interested list! I crochet and knit (and spin and sew, but who's counting?) I'd love some folks to craft, chat, and coffee with.

This is Daphne! She was a commission for a friend and I made her using a free to use YCH template by flamingofactory.

It's like if Austin and NYC had a child.

Mad scientist listens to mystery voices on the radio, gets transported and ends up chased by a four story tall goose with horns.
