This ones a doozy, let me know if you have any suggestions for how I could have patterned her shorts in particular a little better there’s still not something quite right about them.
And comment if youd be interested in a digital pattern version of the upcoming Kimono, because I did make a digital pattern for that!

Mihoyo has a lot of characters with split hair! It may seem strange at first but it’s actually a smart game design, since whilst you play the game 90% of the time you’re looking at the back of the character. Mihoyo doesn’t want the hair to cover the design on the back, therefore the hair is split
I've always assumed it was to easily create the physics needed to get that flowy motion. If you think about it, characters with trenchcoats or long pieces of fabirc going below their waistline always have a split.
@jndi wdym they've been making other games all along
@jndi ! MiHoYo didn't change their name. They just created a new subsidiary called Cognosphere which is responsible for managing Hoyoverse.
@jndi ! No problem :)
@@R0se12 we know but some of us still like to call it mihoyo
As someone who's got a lot of sewing anxiety your overexplinations are actually WONDERFUL. It's so much less intimidating going into a project when someone's broken down what everything means!
Aww! Thanks so much im so happy it's helpful!
😊
I agree…and now I know I NEED (want) pinking shears, a couching foot, and a machine that can serge the edges, lol.
@Sarah Spaceman Yesss same here! I actually don't know the first thing about sewing or making cosplay props, but I DO love watching people making their craft 😂 I've watched a bunch of videos but NONE have gone into as much detail as yours, I can see how helpful your videos would be for others and I'm sure they appreciate it!!! As for me, I really really liked how many diagrams and animations you took the time to include :') the gif showing how your sewing machine is supposed to work?! FASCINATING to me! 😂❤️
Explanations*
“we make cosplay to fit our body, we don’t make our bodies fit our cosplay” this really is such a helpful advice. i struggle with body dysmorphia and one of my ways to escape it is through cosplay but i often discourage myself from cosplaying certain characters because of how i think my body would look in them. but i can make the cosplay to fit me how i want it to fit!! i don’t have to make myself miserable!! thank you sarah ❤ can’t wait to see you at holmat 2023!🎉
There are a lot of great one liners in this, but "we're going to play sock god" has to be my favorite
I ABSOLUTELY CANNOT believe this is for free on the internet, the amount of work you put into not only the design (!!!holy shit!!) but also the editing of the video itself?? Stunning. Brilliant. Genius. I am on my knees in awe
This is so sweet thank you so much
Well, it isn't really "free" per say as we're spending our time on watching it haha

I want that basically 99% for playing Tekken hehe, imagine what you could do in videogames with no frame or input restriction!
😁
I'm a middle-aged male who will never cosplay yet I watched this whole thing, I do enjoy watching a competent passionate expert explaining what they're doing well no matter the medium.
u can though, theres enought cool middle aged characters in games anime and manga, its never late to cosplay :D
Welt cosplay when
Cosplayers should definitely be more vocal about cosplay patterning not having to be 100% canon. I prefer higher waisted fits, so I almost always modify so that I’m comfortable. Comfort over canon. Also? Aesthetic over canon sometimes too
So true!
Ahh how you explained the sock tights just helped me SO MUCH in figuring out how I’m gonna make boot covers for my Lumine cosplay ♡
“You make your cosplay fit your body, not your body fit the cosplay” AHHH THAT WAS THE BEST ADVICE IVE EVER HEARDD😭😭
Kokomi is a really fun character to cosplay!! I loved her design, all the blues, purples and pinks make it look stunning. I'm really happy to see another kokomi cosplayer!!
Man that yarn detail is genius i could have totally used that to add it as detail to a silvermist dress I made. Also the scissors and packing tool just great tips. Thank you! I have some stuff to buy lol
As i play genshin, the loop on kokomi’s outfit and the high thigh socks seems to be sewn together. Making it a whole body outfit
So, as someone who's always lived on a farm with chickens when you pulled out the roll of plastic wrap my first thought was "oh yeah, we use that when we butcher chickens...oh, packing? Yeah that's what I meant.." 💀💀
Edit: GASP OH MY GOSH, IVE NEVER HEARD OF A SATIN STITCH, THAT'S GONNA HELP ME SO MUCH AJJANSNS
also, I never thought of doing the ducktape method for making clothes, I've only seen it for fursuits. This is absolutely gonna help me
This is one of the funniest comments I have ever read
@@goatmilk2937 THAT MAKES ME SO INSANELY HAPPY
LMAO HOW AM I JUST NOW FINDING THIS COMMENT 😭😭
also fursuits???? tbh idk why that surprised me bc i have no idea how they're even made
@@zoey398 LMAO fursuits being made are like-rlly cool!
You're the reason I've gotten into making my own cosplays! After watching this, I'm ready to work on making something right now :) So happy you have a youtube and I put on the notifications so I can know when post!!!! Love your reels and everything!!
Aww yay! that makes me so happy
ive watched a lot of seamsters on youtube and so often they will talk about so many kinds of stitches, and theyll explain the "complex" ones but if you dont know anything about sewing (like me!) you get totally lost ^^' thank you for explaining some of the stitches ive been wondering about for so long! also i love the cosplay im so glad its comfortable because the complexity makes it feel like it'd be so weird to wear
This helped me SOOO MUCH! Even though I’m not making this cosplay, it still helped me!
Im so glad it was helpful!
Sarah: Synthetic dye fumes are extremely toxic
Me, an intellectual, who attempted to dip-dye a synthetic ball gown hem in a trashcan filled with a couple gallons of synthetic dye in my kitchen with no extra ventilation: 👁👄👁
I really appreciate that
"We got cosplay to fit us not the other way around"
Because I have been judged for wanting to cosplay characters that show their belly but not wanting to show my stomach because I'm not a size 2 or 4 US like the character
Okay, having the pure dedication and inspiration to make something just by getting it in a gacha game
THEN being able to sew it ?
My God I want this level of dedication 💙
I gotta take some like skill share classes or something on how to learn to sew or something to get to this level
just wow, such a talent for sowing a costume! and thx for the etailed explanations, they will prove super helpfull for anyone trying to make this outfit alongside ur vid ^^
you were one of my inspirations to start sewing in 2020 and I love love love how you explain the stitches and techniques youre using thank you so much 🙏
I know absolutely nothing about sewing and cosplay but this entire process was absolutely amazing to watch. Starts off with pure chaos and then everything comes together! The cosplay turned out really beautiful btw, and now I want to make one kokomi cosplay for myself xD
Every time I see the duct (masking) tape patterns anywhere, I’m always like “oh hey they shed a skin, good for them!” XD
I really like Kokomi and you seem exceptionally talented, I’m sure this will be amazing!
I really love your videos! Just had to pause and tell you that because you are one of the few people who talk about the basics and not only how but why some methods works! It really helps a lot c': So please keep up your great work, you're such an amazing teacher!💗💗💗
Thank you so much!!
I love the way you edit these videos! The added motion graphics really make this super engaging!
This was both incredibly helpful and entertaining to watch! You're very skilled and I love how clean your editing is. I'm ecstatic that you're posting here again and I really hope that more people find your channel!!
Comments like this make the extra editing work worth it, thanks so much
I watched this video a long time ago and I’m rewatching it as it got recommended. I love your videos. The quality is so good. It’s as if I’m watching an actual arts tv show. Your creativity here is amazing. 💖
Thank you so much!!
Truly a valiant effort since hers is one of the toughest costumes to replicate. Bravo, ma'am!
I’m gonna upgrade my raiden cosplay by making her thigh highs myself, can’t wait to use all the tips you gave for the kokomi ones!🙌
I’m still pretty new to sewing but your videos give so much confidence I’ll be able to pull it off
Just a tip you probably already know and might’ve over corrected for: usually when there’s fabric bunching around the crotch area, it’s because there’s too much fabric and you might need to adjust the inseam. In-house Patterns Studio made a great tutorial on her blog. Overall, this is so beautiful! Thanks for teaching me about the couching stitch. I had never heard of it before!
This is so insightful! If you ever get to make Keqing, I will definitely give mine a try! (Cos I can't find one with my size and I'm big sad)
You made the process of cosplay making a lot easier to understand. The image for the leggings you used to show where each fabric goes really helped me visualize! Now I really want to make a cosplayyyy.
Such fantastic work! I love your stitch explanations and I am incredibly impressed at how clean and helpful the graphics are. Amazing job!!
This video was so well done! It's been a while since I've watched anything over 20 mins. You have a way of being entertaining while being informative and I learned a lot from this video :3
I just found you and I am SO impressed by your channel!! You really have a way of teaching in an organic way ***while learning and experimenting*** with such ingenuity that is so enjoyable to watch! It’s entertaining, calming and super informative ❤
I love how you explain stuff as you go. Like the types of stitches with names and even that part about the huge machine! It's really interesting 😊❤
I learned more about sewing from this video than in like years of practice and classes o.O
Thank you so much for your service
First time viewer and I gotta say I'm very impressed with your sewing knowledge. Ive always loved watching the Cosplay builds. It's amazing to see fabric become something. You got skills.
I'm really excited to see you doing videos like this again! I loved the beautiful detailing and techniques you did on Pink diamond's costume I saw on display once and followed on ig immediately after! Ive always wonder how you do all this beautiful and intricate work and in excited to find out!
I just love these videos!
You explain things so well and the graphics are fantastic
I just want to say thank you so much for all ur work and explaining all the sewing techniques ahdhaxh I feel like I’m learning so much haha
this was such a fun and informative video! thank you for describing the stitches so easily and imparting your cosplay wisdom lol🥰
I'm super happy I found your process videos because premade kokomi cosplays piss me off and you did most of the ideas I had for this project, even the jellyfish prop!! 😯 Thank you so much for the videos, they've been great inspiration for my project
I am in such awe. Your work is amazing, for you to go this far to make sure you do justice to real design is incredible!
I love your problem solving techniques. I come from a sewing background and seeing how cosplayers go about making their builds is just fascinating to me.
Your enthusiasm while moving along the process is awesome 👍🏾. Glad I've subscribed to your channel.
seeing your process is very helpful, i'm planning on making my own genshin cosplay (not kokomi) and i'm inexperienced in sewing and clothing + cosplays in general but having you explain your whole process in detail is super useful. i also love how you used resources that are pretty accessible for the average person (no 3d printers or laser cutters) which makes it easier to follow! overall a very well made video + cosplay
the extreme thigh highs are a LIFESAVER technique for my herrscher of thunder cosplay... i was so scared of what i would have to do to keep those weird abstract shapes in place but no !! im simply making them tights
I learned so much with this! Nice! ♥
wooow, you're so talented, the costume looks amazing 😍
Ok im invested on this genshin series, im learning a lot of things about sewing here! Great content 👍
I literally had no idea what a couching stitch was! Thank you for teaching me this! Will definitely come in handy for some of my future cosplays!
1:25 „genius!!!“ *hits themself* I‘m crying
having so much fun binging your channel, I had no idea you were on youtube! found you through your godoka cosplay, amazing to watch your work in action!
hope you're having a wonderful day Sarah, and thank you so much for bringing so much joy to mine!
Kokomi was also my first banner character. I still remember when I got her at Wangshu inn.
You are so good! I love your designs!
not only do u have the luck of mihoyo to get kokimi but u also have amazing cosplay and video making skills. ur cosplays are so pretty:)
For some reason in this video, I realized how much imagination you have to use when making a cosplay, not every character comes with a step my step pattern for each piece, you have to create a lot of it in your mind first. I'm proud of you for even attempting a kokomi cosplay 🫶
So much work to make a cosplay is insane ! Much respect
the dedication is amazing!
Here from Instagram! I dont plan on making this anytime soon but you are very good at explaining and it was easy for me to understand the concept!
you're so inspiring in the most literal way of the word like. i wanna make a cosplay or just clothes in general so badly now
This video is so cute!!!! You did an amazing job!!!
You got more patiences and dexterity than I'll ever have, lol. The cosplay looks amazing!
you are really amazing i love cosplay but you inspired me to just start sewing again! you explain everything so well thx so much
I stumbled over ur channel a few days agoo and im binging ur content omg i love ur videos
Im working on my first Cosplay, Sucrose!
and lots of your techniques that you showed here are going to help me a lot!!!! !
Really enjoying your videos ☺️ I would have gone for stretch fabric on the bodysuit instead and do the power mesh technique on all the holes. Absolutely loved the idea of the yarn tho! Thanks for the awesome tutorials. Very envious of your graphic skills as well!
Thank you! Yeah I ended up regretting not having the whole thing be stretch, but we live and we learn!
I am really enjoying your videos. Thank you.
Your explanations are more addictive than the anticipation then revealing.
I have just discovered your videos, during an October heat wave here in So. Cal. and have watched several, I love costuming since the 80's, make-up is my jam. I love your passion and love of the craft of sewing your cosplay. Hope to see you at Anime in Tokyo 2023?
"Genius!"
*Bonk*
"Ow"
You get me...
Wow! I just saw two videos from you, but already learning sooo much stuff! Now i will watch ALL your videos!!!
Glad you like them!
Good lord you are so goddamn talented. Keep slayin girl! 👏🏽
Haha thanks so much! I'll try!
These videos have been so soothing while I clean and work on my Eremite Desert Clearwater cosplay.
thanks so much for this! desperately needed help with my battle academy leona legging and my friend linked your video.
Aww yay! Thank you to both of you, and best of luck with your leggings!
I know I’m late but, thank you for making this understandable for non cosplayers, like myself 😭
You're so skillful, this looks like a lot of work
Finally!!!! Young me 10 years ago wanted you to exist on TH-cam! At long last, I have found the perfect sew master cosplayer ❤❤❤ 😂
All jokes aside. Loved your work and enjoyed this video. Got a new sub 😜
The comment about making a cosplay fit your body instead of the other way around is very helpful! I want to cosplay Catra from She-Ra, cause she's wonderful, but she wears such tight-fitting clothing and I'm really not that comfortable doing that, but I might just make it a lot more structured and with thicker fabric, still fitted but not so tight. That'll be a nice challenge for sure!
i cant believe youre doing videos now, youre my favorite cosplayer 💝 commenting for the algorithm!!
That is so sweet thank you very much (And double thank you for the algorithm help haha!!)
Samesies ☺️
“Genius!” Hits self in the head
Great work !!!
this was my first video i saw from you i think 2 months ago? and now here i am, making my first patterns for my first cosplay. wish me luck XD
Aww thats wonderful! Best of luck!!
I have no experience with sewing or handicraft, but this was very enjoyable to watch; No clue how I ended up here or if I'll ever make use of this knowledge, but well done! 🤣
Im not like a big gamer (i do play merge gardens and pokemon (mostly go)) but omg i want to cosplay now!! I started learning how to use a sewing machine and that whole tape and wrap method to make a pattern is perfect! I was thinking of using muslin against my body to draft an underwear and bra pattern but i think im going to use your method instead! And then you said the best thing EVER "we make cosplay to fit our bodies not fit our bodies to cosplay." Best thing ive heard in so long ❤️❤️❤️
Why do you own a cat with a perfect star on his forehead! So precious!
I’ve always had a na o for sewing by hand and this Christmas I finally got a sewing machine, and I was wondering if you could ever do a tutorial on how to use one!
i have been introduced to master level cosplaying, geezus. at least it does pay off and this part looks amazing!@!!
So much good work done here.. i suck at sewing.. you make me kinda want to try again.
The passion and the Dedication 🤯 respect to all Cosplayer
dunno how i got here, but amazing work, a true craftsman!
Watching your video while I make my own Klee cosplay is so ironic but absolutely amazing
Haha great video!
I don't know where or if I gona use this but I have learned so much.
Thank you
Greetings from germany
i specifically choose my genshin cosplays by ease 😂 which is why kathrine and jean are my only ones planned
God the video was so useful...I learnt like 3 new things... That I wasn't taught in class
Wow that cosplay is amazing
Someone not pulling kokonut but wanderer i was shocked to get him i would LOVE to get kokonut also, this is my first time watching you, So this kokonut cosplay looks sooo good! As a artist but cant draw hands i like to draw klee having dodoco and her bomb merry Christmas 🎁!
I tried to draft shorts with muslin from a pair of no pile fleece on one side maybe just printed cotton poly blend on the outside idk what sort of fabric that is tbh.. anyway the muslin looked like a diaper too so I totally feel for you 😂 i think i need one of your famous "over-explanations" on how to connect the bottom crotch area seams to finish the bottom of the shorts basically.. cause i seem to only do 1 seam across the bottom and it takes care of everything at once but turns out diaper looking especially because my muslin is like unbleached white colored 😂😂😂😂
Your video is amazing and engaging, sad to see it not have 1b views 😢😭
Haha thank you!
