I love sewing beautiful and practical things with wild fur, in my home studio in Southeast Michigan. Did you know, you don't need any sewing machines to sew fur! Garments can be made by hand sewing!
MC-202
My industrial fur sewing machine is a big part of my sewing team! This machine is made just for sewing fur, and is different than traditional sewing machines because the needle moves back and forth towards the user instead of up and down!
Juki LU 563
My Juki is an industrial leather sewing machine, it has a walking foot with needle feed which is needed for sewing materials with a lot of 'drag' like leather. I use this machine for leather sewing, and for other thick materials.
Babylock Katherine
My Babylock is a very nice home-grade sewing machine. I use it for all of my general fabric sewing, like linings.

Darling leather and fur gauntlet and hat patterns are lovely—clear, stylish, and enjoyable to make. The finished pieces look polished and cozy, and the patterns make it easy to create accessories that feel both practical and special. A great choice for anyone who loves handmade winter wear!”
I am from Canada and purchased a 402 fur sewing machine. There is not much of a difference in machines aside from 1 being bigger. The manuals that come with the machine are horrid!!
I printed off the darling leather manual and it has been a god sent. Setting up and building the stand and machine i did end up finding the video on youtube and using the video to help set it up. Which has been an Enormous blessing. Thank you so much.
Accurate pattern. Excellent tutorial. I have made a few out of fur scraps and they have turned out great. Highly recommend.
Easy to understand, and very useful. I hope she makes more patterns.
Her patterns are well laid out, presented in proper sequence . Linked how to video lays out techniques in a clear detailed fashion .
Really enjoyed the pattern and instructions. The video made all the difference. I am not perfect but I am learning.
These are the most amazing gifts ever! I’ve ordered 4 now and they do not disappoint. 💯💯💯
The templates are amazing! Straight forward and easy to follow directions. The videos are very intuitive and easy to follow. 5 stars for sure, highly recommend.
Great pattern and very easy instructions to follow and the video makes it even easier
This covers the "need to know" items for daily maintenance. The Chinese version was almost undeciferable. This covers it in plain English. Pictures are excellent.
Like - loved: personal thank you note. Pattern well thought out. Great info on process. Material list well laid out .
Off to the Trap line !
Excellent work instruction! I watched the YouTube video and had the pattern in front of me. Very easy to follow. I would recommend it to anyone looking to make a really cool fur hat.
These are a thing of beauty!
Red Fox Can Cooler with Tail
This manual and the Darling Leather and Fur videos on YouTube have been great for learning to sew fur with a fur machine. I don't have the MC202. I actually have the techsew 202. I purchased it second hand and didn't get a manual so I was a bit lost when I brought it home but after reading this manual and watching a few videos I figured it out. The two machines are very similar and I was able to do maintenance and sew in a short order. Thanks so much for everything you do to help others learn. I will be buying a few patterns soon.
