   Claude is Complete!

Like Orihime & Rukia I think Claude is kawaii!!!


I was watching Bleach when I got the overwhelming urge to make my own version of Orihime's "purse". I don't want to give away any spoilers but the purse is a character by the name of Claude. So basically the rabbit-esque purse can walk, talk and even sense the bad guys. When I first saw this version of Claude I knew I had to make him. He's so ugly he's cute. So basically I dug through my craft supplies and came up with this:


Here's my version of Claude!


I even put in the zipper at the top of his head and a liner inside just like a regular purse. I plan on using him as my purse at anime conventions and for the Bleach cosplay photo shoots. I just need to find an Orihime to pose with him and a Rukia to glomp him.

Claude is completely hand sewn and considering my RA I think he turned out fairly well. I guess I am just lucky he is kinda goofy looking to begin with so my wonky sewing could be considered authentic. A few times I did get frustrated since before I got RA I could have cranked this purse out in a couple of days. I started this project right after Valentine's Day and just finished last night. >_<;;

I have a bunch of cosplay accessories that I've made and I have yet to post any in the cosplay section here on theO. I should really get some pictures of everything and add to the site. But not right now since I'm sleepy and sore.


Feel the Love.


I'm too tired to comment on comments so I'll just leave you with the pictures of Claude. I love you all and I'll catch you around the site. Laters!
