MAKING A LONG FURBY CARRIER BACKPACK
The most universal problem we all share is the utter length of our furbies. Tho beautiful, gracious and completely other worldly, it is not very portable.
Furbies are meant to explore the world and cause chaos among simple mortals. Now we can help them with also having both hands free!
Perfect for festival season or simple everyday activities like going to court, your beloved friend can accompany you everywhere!
I started with creating pattern that uses my boy’s anatomy to its advantage. Arm holes hold onto him and it will fasten with two buckles.
The mock-up fits him perfectly!
Those are materials I used:
beautiful purple cotton fabric that complements Topson’s fur
thick polyester for lining
white felt for the layer in between
black strap + plastic thingy that I don’t know the name of to make adjustable backpack straps
Firstly I sewn cotton fabric with inner lining fabric and turned it right side out.
Felt goes inside and the thing is closed with stitch all around.
Then I drew the arm holes and sewn around them similar to how you make button holes.
Topson tried it on and it fits perfectly!
It’s time for backpack straps. I sewn two layers together, flipped it and stuffed it with poly stuffing.
Then I added the adjustable mechanism.
The straps go on the harness and it is done!
I’m so excited to share it with you all! This project was on my mind for so long and I finally managed to finish it.
Stay tuned for second part where I will be decorating the carrier and of course for some new content with Topson terrorizing the civilians and attempting malicious acts.
