Was there a tutorial you used for her wig? I know there are tutorials for attaching hair buds like that somewhere (most likely for Sailor Moon) and yours looks so nice I just wanted to see how you did them! Thanks!

I did use a tutorial for the hair buns. I mostly followed Katie Bair's tutorial on stubbing: [link]
Then I made the buns out of foam which I carved into shape and made hollow on the inside. I painted them, covered them in wig hair and glued them right on top of the stubs.

I love that wig, and you sewed the stretch material so well. Very impressive and you look really good as the character. I hope I can learn how to do that stuff sometime.

Hey, thanks so much! That specific type of stretch material was actually pretty easy to work with. If you ever need something shiny, I highly recommend using it :3

Alright all keep that in mind. Any tips or tricks you learned sewing a stretch material?

I would say just take your time, don't pull too much on the fabric when machine sewing and remember to use a looser stitch setting on your machine so that it still stretches. It's a little different but since the fabric is stretchy, it's easier to fit things. I love it!
