I'm finding it difficult to see teeny clothes :'(

I hear that! I almost always make them nonremovable and use an ladder stitch or other invisible stitch to attach them directly to the pony where I want them. I've been known to hot glue fabric straight to the pony if I have a serious problem that a stitch will not fix. lol

Generally speaking I usually fold in and hem my fabric so there isn't a loose end that can get frayed or unravel. I have also used things like fabritack and other cloth glues, but they make the fabric feel hard and stiff.

Hmm. Well I usually tuck in my hems. But I'm trying to overlay a pattern I cut out on top of a different piece of fabric. I don't know how to put it together without having to cut a hole in the bottom piece to make it fit. That'll be a big pain :c

rarity, there is some dedicated anti-fray liquid stuff you can buy at a fabric store - but I've also had luck with just running the very edge of the fabric through a little clear nail polish.  It can darken/change the texture of the edge of the fabric a little, though.  You could test it out on a scrap and see how it works for you.

My goal was to make the pony look like the actual character and use less artistic license but I'm now thinking that is an awful lot of...Black. The pony doesn't NEED pants, right?  :bolt:

I think either way would work.  If you are having trouble with your sculpt you could just paint the pants on and leave the sculpting for other areas. ;) *may or may not be what I am doing*

Pants are overated  :P I though about painting the pants too but I think there may still be too much black.
