I wanna make one for one of my friends, is it hard to do if you're a beginner?

[cheschiiire]

@ItsRobinWhoTalks It shouldn't be too hard if you follow the tutorial, step by step. =] Feel free to ask if you have any questions along the way!

[SaturnLuki]

Sweet

[iDK123xD]

Do you mind tell us how long your fabrics are? ):

[cheschiiire]

@iDK123xD I used less than half a yard of dark gray felt, even less of the light gray felt, and scraps of white fleece and black felt.

[xDressagestaRx]

Aww, this is SO CUTE!! Thanks for posting! I might try it...

[Michellorama]

Do you hand sew everything or do yolu have a sewing machine

[cheschiiire]

@Michellorama I have a sewing machine. I only hand-sew when it is too difficult to sew by machine, like when I was sewing the opening on the Totoro close.

[cheschiiire]

@EricTzeo3 Haha, yeah that part was tricky. I pricked myself a couple of times. Just take it step by step and it shouldn't be too bad.

[jascarly123]

OMG THANXS SOOO MUCH FOR SHARING YOUR TALENT!! lol i've been looking forever to make one since i need to make a replica of a totoro i already have X3

@jascarly123 Let me know how it goes!

[jascarly123]

@cheschiiire lol k!!

[FritoFredrik]

nice i want one :D or make one

[angelbleep]

What kind of stitch do you use to sew the arms and ears to the body?

[cheschiiire]

@angelbleep I used a straight stitch. Most of it by machine, but when it got too tough to maneuver, it was easier to do by hand.

[angelbleep]

@cheschiiire Thank you! :)

[jenna364]

is it you singing???

[cheschiiire]

@jenna364 Omg, i totally read this wrong the first time and thought you asked if the Totoro was singing, haha. But no, that's my friend, Christine Nguyen. You can check out her channel if you're interested. The link is in the d-box.

[1899able]

omg i been wanting to make a totoro

[cheschiiire]

@1899able You should make the hoodie too. ;)

[1899able]

@cheschiiire yeeaaaaa got all my suplies all ready im so excited ;)

[1234100cookies]

Ok, I will! :) Thanks for all the videos!

[1234100cookies]

Cool, it's really cute! I'll try making it, although I not that good at sewing. Thanks for the video! :)

[cheschiiire]

@1234100cookies Thanks! Just take it slow and you'll get the hang of it. If you have any questions, just ask!

[olliemcnollie]

This is really good, I'll have to try it out, but I'm bad at sewing. Thanks!

[cheschiiire]

@olliemcnollie You should really try it! I made it for my hubb but I stole it back. -.-

It'd be a lot easier to make if you don't make arms-- and it shouldn't look that funny, haha.
