Heya, everyone!

A long waited feature obviously needs some content to work with! ;) Therefore I bring you two items to sew for toddlers through elders! :D

As a person who participates in the 'arts of sewing' myself recently, I've come across the fact that a lot of beginners (or even advanced beginners) happen to make a lot of fluffy circle skirts (whether that's a 1/2 circle, 2/4 circle or a full circle doesn't matter) skirts are just THE thing to work on! (because they're awesome and fluffy! :bunny: Can confirm as someone who owns a few hand-made skirts herself ;))

But not only skirts happen to be a starter project, it's shirts (as in, regular t-shirts or long sleeves) or leggings that most people tend to start on. But leggings just felt a little boring, so I went with a long-sleeve shirt that works perfectly well with this skirt! (I practically made my favourite IRL everyday outfit here lol, a long fluffy skirt and a longsleeve to keep me warm!)

What does 'Compatible with the sewing table' mean? This means, with the new sewing table update (1.0.7 or later) (https://modthesims.info/d/643837/ts2-gt-ts3-functional-sewing-table-beta-v1-0-6.html) you can now craft your own clothing and gift them!

But, to keep it to these two items, basically, if you have the 'SewingTableEnabled' package in your game, the items WILL NOT show up in CAS. They're hidden, just like Career items. You can unlock them by sewing them through the sewing table. (See for more information: https://modthesims.info/d/643837/ts2-gt-ts3-functional-sewing-table-beta-v1-0-6.html)

If you really don't want this however, and just want to freely be able to wear them without any sewing, then make sure to NOT download the additional 'SewingTableEnabled' package!!!

Glitches and Errors Just like our sewing projects, this also comes with some slight issues ;)

  • The skirts aren't really great with meshes that aren't 'tucked in'. This was one of the reasons I made the long sleeves :). For toddlers this seems to work a bit better, but overall, make sure to go with skin-tight shirts! Children's long sleeves seem to have this odd glow-y line. I've tried editing that (as usually, it's a normal map issue) but that doesn't seem to remove it... If anyone has any idea how to fix this, then i'd love to hear it! :)

CREDITS: Feedback from the MTS discord! (You know who you are ;) and you're all equally amazing!) S3OC Blender 2.82 Photoshop - (even though that really was only used for making the spec, channels and normals) CTU - (I know, seeing those together with TSRW is very rare :P) TSRW Visual Studio Code - for the XML editing S3PE & The sewing table for sacrificing and exploding on the many tests I did on it to get this to work.
