Strap On Harness Sewing Pattern

Hey there, crafty friend! Today, we're diving into the fun world of DIY strap-on harnesses. Now, don't go all shy on me, we're all adults here, and there's nothing wrong with wanting to add a little something extra to your bedroom adventures. So, let's roll up our sleeves, grab our sewing machines, and create something fabulous!

Why DIY, you ask?

Well, for starters, making your own strap-on harness is a fantastic way to ensure it fits like a glove. No more dealing with ill-fitting store-bought ones that slip and slide at the worst possible moment. Plus, it's a great excuse to play with fabrics and colors, and who doesn't love a good excuse for that?

And let's not forget the cost factor. Buying a custom-fitted harness can set you back a pretty penny, but making your own is surprisingly affordable. You'll just need a few basic materials and a sewing machine. So, it's like having your cake and eating it too - or should I say, having your harness and wearing it too?

Materials You'll Need

Alright, let's get down to business. Here's what you'll need:

• Fabric - Something sturdy yet comfortable, like cotton or a cotton blend. Avoid silky or slippery materials, unless you're going for a 'greatest slip-ups' compilation.
• Elastic - This will give your harness that snuggly fit. Again, avoid anything too stretchy or it'll be like trying to catch a greased pig.
• Sewing Machine - A basic one will do the trick. If you don't have one, now's the perfect excuse to get one!
• Scissors - Sharp ones, please. No one likes a wonky cut.
• Pins - To keep everything in place while you sew.
• Measuring Tape - To ensure your harness is the perfect fit.
• Dildo - Yes, you'll need one for this project. Don't worry, it's just for measuring purposes. For now.

Let's Get Sewing!

First things first, measure your dildo. Yes, you read that right. You'll need to know the length and width to ensure your harness is the perfect fit. Don't worry, no one's judging. We've all been there.

Next, cut your fabric. You'll need two pieces for the main part of the harness, and two pieces for the straps. The main pieces should be about 8 inches wide and long enough to fit around your hips and thighs. The strap pieces should be about 2 inches wide and long enough to go around your waist and thighs, with a bit of extra length for the elastic.

Now, pin your main pieces together, right sides facing. Sew around the edges, leaving the top open. Do the same for your strap pieces. Then, turn your main piece right side out and try it on. Make any adjustments as needed. Once you're happy with the fit, sew the top closed.

Next, it's time to add the elastic. Cut four pieces of elastic, two for the waist straps and two for the thigh straps. These should be long enough to go around your waist and thighs, plus an extra inch or two for overlap.

Pin the elastic to the inside of your straps, making sure it's centered. Then, sew it in place, stretching the elastic as you go. This will give your harness that snuggly fit we're all after.

Finally, attach your straps to your main piece. You can do this by sewing them directly onto the main piece, or by creating loops of fabric that the straps can slide through. This will allow you to adjust the fit as needed.

And... You're Done!

Congratulations, you've just made your very own strap-on harness! Isn't that something? Now, go ahead and give it a test run. Just remember, safety first. Always use plenty of lube and go slow at first to make sure everything fits and feels just right.

And there you have it, folks. A fun, easy-to-make strap-on harness that's sure to add a little something extra to your bedroom adventures. So, go forth, sew, and conquer!

Until next time, happy stitching!
