Hyrule Honies ... Continued
Today I got the Sheik hat done. It was really fun sewing all the strips on. Made from old bedsheets, inside the hat is completely finished, only the strips sewn onto the hat where left with raw edges, to create a more realistic ‘wrap’ effect.

Sachiel Red Striped Tank
I made this tank out of some stuff I found in a bag of scraps that was given to me. The red and white stripes reminded me of Asuka bathing suit. Then a made a terrycloth patch of Sachiel’s face/faceplate, with button eyes! Its so cute! I love it! the super full butterfly sleeves look awesome too and give alot of movement.
Unit 01 couldn’t help himself. See angel, will smash.

JimJams for Eno!
A few month ago Eno let me use her beautiful body to be the template body for my new Plus Sized line. In the proceeding months, I made her these Jimjams as a thank you gift, and while they sat in my closet, undelivered, she worked hard, and lost a ton a weight. The pajama’s are still comfy, but has been made with her bigger size in mind so their a bit roomier now than originally intended.
