Finished Prinny Pack
Dood. Dood! DOOD!
I am so ECSTATIC about how this bag turned out. Yesterday I finalized with the contact cement on the outside of the leather, as well as attaching the belt and little suede strips. Overall it’s SUPER comfy to wear and it holds weight pretty well! I’m so excited to use this as a con bag in the future lol.
First I’ll be making two more packs for @Bloomerumi and her hubby, and then I’ll be taking nice photos to put them up on Etsy. If you’re interested in getting your own Prinny pack, I’ll be doing a max of 3 packs at a time! Also you better check out Bloomerumi’s Prinny Kigu and get the total combo ;D

Prinny Pack WIP
The last couple of nights I did a huge amount of work! The inner layer is made of craft interfacing lined with a nice SKULL pattern. The outside is pleather vinyl from Empire Fabrics. To help keep those inner seams down while I put it together, I actually used contact cement! It takes less time to cure and is effective at holding everything down. The most tedious part is all the outside seams are hand-stitched through the stitches to keep the two bodies together. Once I re-do the outside layer (which was an inch too short), put in the magnets, and make the skull, I’ll have a basically done bag.
Again this was inspired by Bloomerumi who is making her awesome Prinny Blooms! Once I’ve finished the matter, I’ll be offering these bags in different sizes on my #Etsy store. This sized bag, depending on lining choice, will come out to about $115 before shipping.

Prinny Pack WIP
DOOD I did some pretty great work last night getting the first sewn draft together! Wanted to test the stabilizer and figure out how I wanted to sew the entire thing together before doing a full test with the pleather. After doing my math on my craftfoam draft to know what to cut, I prepped with heavy craft interfacing as my liner, and then linen as my outside testing.
I was worried that the interfacing wouldn’t hold shape/weight as well as it could, but I also did a double test with stitching down the fabric excess which really helped keep the box shape. When I do it in full I’ll most likely use contact cement to hold it down versus sewing it because hand stitching will take 5ever. One nice technique I used that I picked up from doing corsets was using a blunt needle to weave between the interfacing and the linen shell, to make sure it holds tight. I’ll prob add some excess fabric glue as a JIC in the final product to hold it all together, but it makes sure the seams are lined up.
One more piece goes over as the total shell, but I wont be making it for this draft. I think I’m simply ready to test a belt method, and then make my own pack!

Prinny Pack WIP
In tandem with Bloomerumi getting her Prinny Bloom ready, I asked to see if I could work with her to make Prinny packs! This weekend I did my first draft of the pack for sizing- first with poster board, and then craft foam. These packs will also be for sale once I’ve finalized my drafts!
Figuring out the sizing was interesting as I wanted to try out multiple sizes and strapped them to the belt. Whats interesting is the pack changes friggen design from pic to pic so I’m doing a sort of combined estimate. The final package will be lined with heavy interfacing, full vinyl leather, an embroidered skull over a magnetic purse snap, and lined with multiple options for fun.
The idea is that I could offer three different sizes for people who may want to order a Prinny Pack: the Fanny, the Pack, and the TOTE!
