Cosplay, commissions, and sewing
Well, I was hoping to post about my new cutting table today, but it's currently housing materials for three projects and I'm not exactly in the mood to clear it off for pictures. So I was pleasantly surprised when I opened my email and saw that Dolly of Fashion that Pays nominated me for a Fashionista … Continue reading Fashionista Award
Apparently my cosplays are actually agents of Hydra. Every time I knock one out, three more spawn in its place. Here's a quick look at what I'm *hoping* to have finished out in the next few weeks. Fingers crossed that I don't get roped into twelve more 0_oSailor Jupiter: This has taken far more time than is … Continue reading WIP Wednesday: July Edition
Completed: July 2014 Hours Spent: 6ish Debuted: North Texas Comic Book Show Summer 2014 Why This Costume: ...it's another Rogue? Haha. I really enjoyed the Marvel Now run of X-Men, which featured an all-female team, including Rogue. This version of Rogue is (or was) very much the Rogue that I grew up with and loved. She's the muscle of the … Continue reading Costume Notes: Marvel Now Rogue
On Saturday, I attended the North Texas Comic Book Show! After all of my traveling and moving over the last month, I was antsy for an opportunity to dress up and hang out with fellow geeky people and this event fit the bill. This was my first time attending one of these shows (they hold … Continue reading North Texas Comic Book Show
I've you follow my Instagram or Facebook page, you've probably seen my new pegboard! I installed it about a week ago and I honestly can't imagine my new craft space without it. Even though I have a whole room to myself now, having my pegboard clears up so much space on my sewing table and helps … Continue reading DIY Pegboard Organization
Say hello to the last project I sewed up before moving! June was Indie Pattern Month, so I decided to go with an indie company that I'd never used before: Closet Case Files. I purchased the Bombshell pattern last summer, but never got around to it. I'm kind of glad that I didn't, since I … Continue reading June Challenge: Hello Bombshell!
Not going to lie, I am really excited to have some non-cosplay projects on my table right now. I really enjoy making costumes, but it's nice to have a break every now and then. To keep things simple, I decided to make Colette's Moneta with a reversible knit I picked up a few months ago. … Continue reading Colette Moneta
Well, I was hoping to blog about my new Moneta today, but I just realized I don't have any pictures. Derp. Hopefully that'll be up next week sometime. Instead, have some costume progress! I'm working on a couple of different costumes at the moment, so here's a brief look at my line-up for the rest … Continue reading WIP: June Edition
Completed: June 2014 Hours Spent: 20~ Debuted: A-Kon 25 Why This Costume: I was positively thrilled to see that A-Kon was holding a masquerade ball this year. Any excuse to wear a pretty dress! I hemmed and hawed over what I wanted to wear. I was pretty much set on just costuming up my satin Cambie or thrifting a prom dress, … Continue reading Costume Notes: Ms. Marvel Ballgown
Completed: June 2014 Hours Spent: 12-15~ Debuted: A-Kon 25 Why This Costume: Several of my cosplay friends have Pokemon trainer costumes, so I decided to make one to join them. I couldn't figure out which one I wanted for a while, but I loved the design of Serena, and I really enjoyed playing as her in Pokemon X! Plus, Fennekin … Continue reading Costume Notes: Pokemon Trainer Serena
