Shikoba

Skills

• Clothing Sarongs Possibly the simplest thing that Shikoba is capable of making. The single piece of fabric is normally created from cotton or silk. Embroidery can be added in any color desired in borders around the edge or larger patterns. Overcoats A bit more complex, however now that the wolf has been exposed to colder climates he has become good at making the thicker fabric rather weatherproof. Fur of any animal type can be added so long as the fur is brought to him. (No wolf pelts please... This is not silence of the wolves...) General Clothing Can be created in any size from adult to child. Created in a variety of fabrics from cotton, silk and leather. Bone or stone carved buttons can also be added as well as detailed embroidery. Some fur can also be added if the pelts are brought to him. Again... No wolf pelts...

  Quilts & Blankets Baby Blankets Unlike many of his other creations these can be knitted or created from soft fabrics. They are not very big so the wolf does not mind branching into hand knitting or couchette. Embroidery can be added to baby blankets made from fabrics. Patchwork Quilts Created to be thick and warm, Shikoba's hand sewn quilts are very durable. Made from a variety of fabrics, the wolf tends to make these from whatever scrap fabrics he has at hand. They tend to be loud, colorful and just plain fun! If asked the wolf can also create something a bit more calming and with specific fabrics. He can also create something from fabrics brought to him. Bedding From pillows to bed rolls the wolf is becoming rather good at creating comfortable beds for the unexpected. For the moment the bedding is filled with scrap fabric, however the wolf is experimenting with wool and other stuffing that is considerably softer and more comfortable to sleep on.

  Dolls & Toys Stuffed Animals Something relatively new the wolf is now attempting. He has begun to create stuffed animals. The brightly colored animals are perfect for any nursery setting and are made from the softest fabrics. Dolls He is not fond of them but after coming into contact with more children than he has before he has accepted that they do require toys... He has started trying to make dolls that are less... Creepy than he has come across before. Not to say that it is entirely working but he can tolerate the ones that he makes a bit better. He is also becoming rather good at creating doll clothing...

  
  Embroidery
  
  The process tends to be a very slow one that takes up quite a bit of the wolf's time but he doesn't seem to mind all that much. He works in a variety of colors and fabrics, the wolf enjoying putting a design to something that was once plain. Anything can be brought to the wolf for customization and detailing.
  
  Mending
  
  If there is something still able to be sewn together, Shikoba will happily figure out a way to sew it. He is very good at saving clothing that one might have thought could not be saved. That not saying that everything is salvageable. He will certainly try though.
  
  Buttons
  
  The wolf hand carves buttons from stone or bone. Stone is considerably more difficult but not impossible for the wolf. Either way he can create some fairly decorative items this way, his carving skills certainly not confined to only buttons.
