Woah it's been a crazy few weeks and I've been derelict on getting an update out on what I've been up to - www.patreon.com/posts/update... #fursuitmaker #plushmaker #sewingpatterns
Just dropped a new release of Pandafold 0.6.49, this release is a vast improvement to the way 3D lines are drawn along with many other improvements. You can get it here: www.patreon.com/posts/releas...
Thanks to @ozziebonez.bsky.social for helping with this! We still need to do some R&D on the mane, trying to use actual wefts and make sure it stands on it's own. #fursuitmaker #fursuitwip #zebra
I'm really excited soo much work to make, I hope it will show off what the software can do - will you be at tff2026?
Patterns and a WIP of a zebra fursuit head
Zebra sewing patterns created by pandafold
3D zebra fursuit head model
Pandafold made this stripey effort much less error and quicker prone then if I'd been using tapped patterns. #fursuitwip #zebra #sewingpattern #wip #3d
#WIP for Curves, I still have a lot of stuff to figure out, but this is really excited, I can't wait to share it with you-all when it's ready! www.patreon.com/posts/its-cu... #fursuitmaker #fursuitwip ?
Just dropped release 0.6.37, this release makes it easy to create symmetrical patterns, allowing you to easily mirror 3D or 2D patterns. www.patreon.com/posts/149467... #fursuitmaker #plushmaker #sewingpatterns
Finally Introducing Riley2 my most recent suit. Zero blind spots at all, moving jaw, magnetically removable beak for drinking while being super slim and lightweight.

I'll be giving a panel on Pandafold ( painteddesertfc.org/schedule/#437 ) on Sunday at 10am at Painted Desert Fur Con #PDFC #PDFC2026 #fursuitmaker #plushmaker
Almost ready for for the MANE event! I patterned this using Pandafold, I'm slowly working to develop a new liner system for my fursuit heads and I'm trying to do it digitally patterned, never going to duct tape, straight from 3D models to patterns!! #fursuitmaker #fursuitwip
Come checkout out my panel at Painted Desert Fur Con 2025, I'll be presenting a panel on what it takes to get to digital patterning using Pandafold. #PDFC #fursuitmaker #fursuit

At some point if you're interested in trying to go digital patterning, skipping over tapping altogether I'd love to talk to you about your process!
Fun to see your process!
You're speaking my language!
These are awesome!

Here is my development update for this week:

Patterns laid out for SVG export
Patterns projected on a cutting mat next to a PDF printout of the patterns
Pandafold can either print out patterns PDF, SVG, or use a cheap projector (50$ from Amazon) to project the patterns directly on fabric - together we can end big ducts monopoly on patterning!

This wolf was patterned with Pandafold, I rushed it out for DenFur. No taping, just straight from 3D model to printed patterns to fur! #fursuit #fursuitwip #fursuitmaker #sewing #3d #plushmaker #plushart #cosplay #cosplayartist #cosplaymaker

Hahaha, try writing software to do all this for you, it's utterly complex. I thought that the 2D part of labeling patterns would be easy, it turned out to be super challenging, especially generating the pattern alignment marks.
I dig it!
