I am an illustrator. I love to draw figures, lines, anything.
Well, I decided to do something different today.
I went to Joann's, bought some scrap fabric and felt and two broaches.
Went to my friend's house and I made a small make-up bag from SCRATCH.
I never really had any experience sewing before but I fell in love, tonight.
I just want to show off my finished product! :3

Yeah... it's kinda difficult and I needed some help like, getting started with the needle and like using the sewing machine. And I made my friend sew on the zipper, though after looking at it, I could've done a better job myself on that xD
But yeah... with practice I'm sure it'll get easier for me. I really enjoy it. It's very relaxing xD
The next thing I'm going to make is a little cake. Like a plushy cake. It's soooo cute >w<

Nice work, the broach goes very well with that fabric! Cute figurines, Mokona. smile I enjoy working with all sorts of different materials. Here are some of the things I have made: My first attempt at ceramics, no references.  My second attempt, a study of an old Roman bust. And here is a handpainted, quilted skirt I made. Sadly the closeups of the paintings on this disappeared when my laptop crashed, along with the photos of the other clothes and jewellery I made. sad

Very well done! =3 You really selected the perfect scrap of fabric with the broach, they complement each other nicely.
xD I LOVE to sew, my grandma taught me to make my own quilt when I was younger, and I've been making clothes/costumes off and on since then. (xD; No picture of my shirt, but it's a kimono style top. And I've made my son's costumes, and a few Con pieces, but nothing too impressive.)
=3 Sewing is pretty tricky to get right, if that's your first try, you're already showing some awesome talent.

That plushie is really cute! What did you use for the swirly parts of the hair?
I used ceramic clay, but these photos were taken before burning them. My teacher threw both of them away at the end of the semester. sad
I love to sew too, and to fix up and alter clothes. smile
