@@helloworld6622 You can do it. Sewing machines are a little like a car. It has a pedal and your steer the fabric like a steering wheel. At first it's like AUUUGH what? But if you set it to slow and spend maybe 20 minutes just getting comfortable it's very easy to get the hang of.

Tips for people with thick thighs: incase an elastic in the top hem that is tighter than you think you need it. Then run a bead of silicon around the inside of that seam (check to make sure it’s body safe- I’d use an aquarium grade silicone calking gun). The silicon adds extra grip and the elastic will keep the top from rolling down.

@@Aki-we1lm Another great tip, if this not real shoes it'll work and that's the trick that Kinpatsu used for her Ahri Spirit Blossom cosplay, you can sew your shoes cover / stocking on a pair of ballerina tights ! (can't share how she have done tho because it's patreon exclusive so if you want the full tuto about this, check her store, the book are normally up in her store !)

This is great advice, as cosplay shoes can sometimes be more expensive than the costume itself. Its also easier to work with I'd imagine. Take Suigintou from Rozen Maiden, her knee high boots a topped with ribbon and lace and I'd imagine that would be a pain to affix to real boots.

In my experience, placing wax paper on the presser foot side of your project when sewing on a machine will also help the fabric glide, it then just tears off as stitching through it perforates it nicely. Never tried Vaseline, but I might give that a go!

Another great method for sewing vinyl is to pin/clip a thin strip of parchment paper over where you want the seam to be. I prefer this method to using moisturizer or Vaseline because it doesn't get anything inside the machine that could mess it up. :)

Ok small historical fun fact cause the drawing of the back seam reminded me of it, during WW2, the military used the material for women stockings to make parachutes. Women did not to seem indecent when going to work or doing their outings, so they would fake the seam of the stockings by drawing them on.

I remember the day I made my thigh high boots. I found an old pair of knee high boots with the synthetic leather already flaking off, but the soles are still great to this day. Since I can't typically use it in the usual tropical weather, rather than throw it, why not repurpose? I had some (nice) fake leather stashed and used similar techniques on the pattern making. I then had to glue and sew the (nice) leather since I thought I wouldn't use it to any other cosplay (I don't cosplay a lot soooo...). Plus it looked like generic simply baggy-ish black leather boots, although not as neat as this. Proud of it. Need to find that pleather material coz this video reminded me of an old pair of pumps that had its synthetic leather already flaked but kinda wanting (and hoping) to use it... xD
