So I was just checking out how much things would cost just for the basics for all the test material that I would need from them and here's what I came up with:


$16.00 Peacock Flannel Fabric - 5 yards = $80.00
$16.00 Light Grey Flannel Fabric - 3 yard = $48.00
$5.75 Satin Lining - Baby Blue - 5 yards = $28.75
$3.50 Solid Pants Lining 100% Polyester - 60" - White - 3 Yards = $10.50

Sub-Total = $167.25

$1.95 Italian 1/4" Light Blue Twisted Lip Cord Trim LT-119 - 20 = $39.00

Sub-Total = $206.25

$0.25 Pastel Blue Ribbing = $5.00

Sub-Total = $211.25

This doesn't include taxes or shipping, which my guesstimations would probably be about 100 more dollars. So the grand total for this test phase would be about 315 dollars.

That's a lot... Not that this is stopping me but just for materials alone for enough to work with and make mistakes with that's a bit of money. This still doesn't cover it all either, that and I really wanted to get those two books because I think they'd be rather useful. Things this doesn't include but are more minor are materials for making the cap brim, pockets, buttons, zippers, etc.

I still really want to do this though. Not only do I think I will learn a lot in this process but also think I could come up with something rather nice hopefully. I would buy more material and such if I had the money and I knew I would actually fully follow through and would want to continue making them after I make a test one or two but I'm not sure how this is going to pan out or even how long this will take. I will save that part for the final pieces which would be socks and sweater vest (that is if I go through the company in the UK).

I do have to say this has gotten me totally energized though. I mean I haven't done this much research for anything since college for my writing ideas. Also I love that I have LJ to post all these things to as well. It makes it easier to see what I am thinking about it and get some ideas fro other people to. So if you have any ideas, thoughts, comments, smart remarks, please let me know :3

I have a very creative mind but suffer from procrastination and laziness. That will hopefully changed though. Anyway I have many ideas and tons of characters for stories, comics and clothing. Eventually I will get to make some clothes and writing again and possibly even drawing but since the first and the last don't come quite as natural to me so writing will have to suffice for now.

Other info about me: I am a furry and have a FA account for furry stuff although will probably put any stories and other things I create in both places but this is more for general where that is for furry specific stuff and art that I had commissioned. I may put some commissions here if I really like them.

I also have a LJ where I whine a lot. Yeah generally that's about all I do but if you can't whine on you LJ then what's it good for. I will try to keep any blogs rally art related here and leaved the whiny stuff there.

That's about it. If you ever wanna find out more ask and I may tell. :3

Whoring myself: If you want to commission me for art, just let me know!
