Time to help out a friend

So, one of my best buds (in real life and the world of the interwebs) is a cool dude by the name Leo. Leo's awesome, and one of those people that makes me feel good about the world when I'm down (after, say, grading a bunch of papers that indicate the upcoming youth are incapable of intelligent thought ( Read more... )

Oh... my... you're seriously offering to do fic and arts and crafts for fund-raising? *blinks*

I... don't know what to say.

Yup! killpurakat February 18 2013, 00:12:31 UTC
Like I said, you're worth it. More than worth it! *big fat glomping huggles* <3

And like I said at the end, this is a little selfish because it's an excuse to do the fun makings of things! XD

I already posted this to fursuitactions, but maybe if you could tell others about it too? Just that if they want something tangible or fic that you can't do because you don't know the fandom, they could think about this?

First off, I have to say I keep getting distracted by the cuteness of your icon. <3 ( ... )

Little confused here. Do you want me to make you something from the white teddy or 1 inch white, or do you want to buy the fur? Either way, I'm open to that, I just want to clarify.

If it's buying the fur, the white teddy (which has a pile of about 1/2 inch) would be $12/yard and the 1 inch pile (which my order slip that I still have says is Luxury Shag from fabrics.com) would be about $18/yard, plus shipping on both (I will try to get the shipping to be the least I can, though). I have maybe two yards of the long er pile I'd be willing to part with, and I think about 6 yards of the shorter pile I could sell.

Also, when they were packaged and shipped to me, they were horribly stuffed in their boxes, so they both have wrinkles I haven't had the time to get out yet. I want to warn you upfront about that because that will be something extra you have to deal with. :P

Yes i was wondering about the fur. Sorry if i was unclear. Okay i might be interested in the long pile once i get my money into my account. Thanks. Is there any way you would be able to seperate that into one yard? If not thats okay, i have a second resort for a half yard.

Okay killpurakat February 18 2013, 15:59:13 UTC
Right now, the fur I have is all one piece, so I can cut yards off for you if you want less than the max, or would prefer multiple pieces, each a yard long. That's no problem. I'd prefer to ship it as one bunch, though, because I think that's the cheapest shipping option.

Let me know what you want to do. I'm thinking it'll be best to give you my Paypal and then I'll forward everything to Mijan at the beginning of March (when I get paid and can make my contribution). And I'm going to add that edit in.

I'd be interested in buying your gold fur off of you and your medium grey. May I see pics of them though?

Of course killpurakat February 18 2013, 22:19:47 UTC
Have to get home and find my camera, but I won't be parting with much of either, as you honed in on the two colors that I have costume plans for and limited supplies. :P Still...

The gray is Luxury Shag from Fabrics.com a while ago (ordered it... yesh, months and months ago; maybe in June? July? I can't remember). I recall it having a 1 inch pile. I'd be willing to part with just one yard of that for $20.

The golden has slightly less than a 1 inch pile (more than 3/4th inch though). I ordered it more than a year ago, and I forget where it came from. It's incredibly soft and fluffy. I think I could spare two yards of that for $22/yard (and still have enough for this project).

Pics coming when I can find that camera after I get home.

Edit: Have pics of both furs. PM me an email addy so I can send them to you!
