ROADMAPHOW TO START

Your first moves.

Don't start from scratch. Start from here.

Start with a Simple Character and Accessible Materials

Choose a character with a relatively simple design and readily available fabric. For your first project, consider characters from anime, video games, or movies known for straightforward outfits.

Gather Essential Tools and Materials

Invest in a good sewing machine, basic sewing notions (thread, needles, scissors, pins), a measuring tape, and appropriate fabrics. For props, consider EVA foam, Worbla, and hot glue guns.
