Description I hope this is in the right category. My first submission in a while. I'm sure some people thought I was dead. This is a pillow that I made for a friends birthday. It's in the shape of Kyo Sohma's kitty head. This thing was completely hand stitched, eyes, mouth everything. A lot of finger pricking went into it. No sewing machine was used. It's made of super snuggly fleece. I'd love to hear some comments. Serious critiques are welcomed too. I have yet to learn how to complete the stitching without showing at least one ugly seamline.

They are made out of fleece and it keeps clean for the most part. I made a Tohru Rice Ball, which is also in my gallery somewhere, and she is probably the hardest to keep clean, mainly because she is white. When she gets dirty though I can always throw her in the washing machine and she is as good as new.

Thank you. :3 Lots of people love the Kyo people. I've got a bunch of fabric with the intention of making more of him...I guess I'll do that this summer since I won't have a job. (my internship isn't going to pay me XP )

I think I need a friend like you to make me cool stuff. Because this is seriously awesome. In fact if I saw that in a store I would buy it without hesitation. Very cool indeed.

Thanks! I'm going to make another set of them and sell them on ebay after I finish the pillow for myself which is going to be the Tohru Rice Ball.

I will be. In fact, I'll be posting pics of those here as well. I plan to finish all three before I do that though. I also plan to show the inside of the pillow so everyone can see how it's sortof made.

I know I'm horrible. I've kinda gone on drawing haitus. I'll definitely have to post a drawing soon. Thank you for the comment. He took a while to finish. After sewing the details for so long your eyes tend to hurt a bit. XP

chiriku In reply to Berryland [2006-07-14 15:29:58 +0000 UTC]

Thank you very much. Yep, everything was handstitched. You can't really see the white thread but I sewed the reflections of the eyes with white thread. There's just one bad stitch and that's on the bottom. I had to sew him up somehow. He was super snuggly since I used fleece. Actually the fleece for his eyes cost more then it did for the rest of the pillow. XP

*flips out* OMG! It's Kyou-kun in pillow head form!! *glomps the pillow* xD It's very cute, and from the looks of it, though I'm no expert, it looks like it's well made! Awesome job! ^^

Thank you! If you full view the pic you can see my one bad seamline. It's on the bottom. I was kinda sad to see it go, but I can always make another one since I saved the pattern that I made. Right now I'm working on a Yuki for another friend. After that I intend to make a Riceball Tohru pillow with a little plum on the back of it. ^_^

Well, no one is perfect right? There's bound to be mistakes sometimes. x3

That sounds awesome, though. ^^ You could make these and sell them! That is, if it could be profitable xD I know I'd buy a Kyo one if I could. ^^

chiriku In reply to Sabishii-Hana [2006-07-14 15:25:54 +0000 UTC]

I was actually thinking about doing that. I'm about to head off to college and any extra cash I could get would be helpful. My friend likes Kyo, but all the stuff that is designed around him has him looking mad and disgruntled so I just came up with the big eyed, shocked kitty look.

Sabishii-Hana In reply to chiriku [2006-07-14 17:29:15 +0000 UTC]

That's a good idea. ^^ If you ever decide to sell them, post some online to sell, so maybe I'll buy a Kyo one. ^^ And that's also a good idea for him to not be mad. xD I have a lot of Kyo stuff, too, and it's true that most items all portray him as mad. xD I love the expression you gave him. ^^
