So I have had a ridiculous amount of fun this last week plushifying art and throwing my usual crafting rules out the window as I did so*, and I think I want to make plushifying art a more regular thing?
I'm not sure how best to do that, though. Should I make a post that's like "reblog this if you want your art turned into plushies", or "reblog this with links to art you want turned into plushies" or suggest a tag that people can add to art they want plushified, and then I go through the tag when I want to make some plushies?
*no paper patterns, just drawing directly on the fabric so each plushie is one of a kind

By the way!! When I see him, Meet me in the woods by Lord Huron starts playing in my head for some reason.. AND ALSO. He still doesn't have a name! I'm sure he's going to have a slavic name though :')

I bought some French chore coats from this guy who found an abandoned warehouse where they used to manufacture clothes in the 1960s. Since it's like... post-war europe it's all tie-down instead of button down and they're super durable and comfortable but the fun thing is that he's selling them as he found them. Like straight out of the random box on the factory floor in the abandoned warehouse. There's dirt in one of the pockets. It smells crazy. I love it. To be fair he did warn me about the pocket dirt

Okay so: Does anyone know of a good book or resource explaining the best types of fabrics, cuts/patterns, etc to look for when thrifting, when knowing that you will probably need to tailor the thrifted clothing?
And maybe also "how" to do those smaller alterations yourself, although I think I would be fine just taking pieces I find to a tailor.
@readandneedle do you know this? I want to know what I should just get rid of bc tailoring wouldn't be worth it vs like, what I can alter easily without the seamstress wanting to murder me.
I have a generally good sense of major brands and their construction quality, but less so "what is a total bitch to take in, let out, or otherwise change up."
