Most sewing machines that can do a zigzag stitch will also have settings for doing buttonholes; those will also give you a satin stitch as it's basically just a zigzag, set to whatever width you want, with the length set *extremely* short, so that each stitch is basically right beside the one before it. You might find that you need to tweak your tension settings a bit, especially if your fabric is at all stretchy; keep an eye out for truly impressive snarls happening on the underside! If that happens, you'll want to experiment on some scrap to get it just right, but usually you'll want to start off by tightening your tension up just the wee-est hair.

[@Neffertity]

Thank you for sharing this awesome advice!

[@divalea]

When you’re working with a new material, it saves so much time to take a couple scraps and sew them together with your intended thread, stitch, and tension to check that they work.

[@huskyloverlilac]

I’m going to check out your website and see if you’re taking tail commissions right now! I’m crafty enough that I COULD follow your pattern and tutorial, but I can see all the hours of previous experience that led to you knowing exactly where and how deep to cut the foam, sew efficiently, etc. I am just so impressed.

[@lavilish]

Very nice video and tail! You explain things so well! :D But I do have a tip for the voice over - using room tone too fill in the audio gaps. Basically using the audio of your silent room instead of having no sound in your pauses, it makes everything sound more natural.

[@Neffertity]

[@Wingsong5555]

Gotta admit, this is a pretty awesome project! I might actually try this myself one of these days. Though word of advice, when cutting faux fur, don't cut through it like you did in this video. Instead, do a hard press and glide on the back of the fabric. This way, you'll not risk cutting the actual fur and make a bigger mess. That and you'll only have to worry about slightly loose fur on the edges, which should be easy to manage and pull to keep it from making a mess........ Um, sorry if I seemed a bit bossy with my advice. ^~^;

[@Neffertity]

I appreciate the advice, but I've been cutting fur like this for the last 3 years and it's worked out wonderfully.

[@KryssLaBryn]

I know what you mean; I do it too, where you take the tip of the scissors on the fur side of the fabric, and run it right along the actual fabric, sort of like doing a part in your hair with the pointy tip of a comb handle, or something, so even if the fur isn't carefully parted along where you're going to cut (which is what I had, unnecessarily, heh, started out by doing), you still won't be cutting through the fur, just the anchoring fabric. You'll inevitably lose a little bit of fur anyways, just from it pulling out from right beside the cut edge of the fabric; but after the first time I just went and cut funfur without thinking about what was happening to the actual fur itself in relation to my scissors, I've always been extra careful, ha ha! Don't really need my work to unexpectedly have Dumb & Dumber bangs lol
