I had this blue linen for Forever and last year finally decided to actually do something with it, and here that something is! Dress made and patterned by me #sewing #fashion #vintage #historybounding

I made this costume to cosplay Keyleth from @criticalrole.bsky.social and it was so much fun to make! The cloak was made by handstitching 1100 leaves onto a base cloak, and the corset took about 120 hours of work, mixing machine and hand embroidery. #cosplay #sewing #dnd #criticalrole #keyleth

This skirt started off as a tablecloth that I dyed green and then embroidered flowers all along the waistband and hem. Then ofc I had to make a blouse to match, and I love how they both turned out! #embroidery #sewing #fashion #spring #flowers

Here's how the Zelda rendering turned out! Can't wait to finish making this into an actual wearable cosplay. It's certainly going to pose some interesting challenges but I'm very excited to tackle it! #zelda #botw #breathofthewild #art #painting #watercolor #zeldafanart

Finally time to do a proper reveal of my next big cosplay project!!! So excited about this one, I have lots of ideas for how I'm going to go about turning this into something I can wear. #art #painting #watercolor #zelda #loz #breathofthewild #botw

A little over a year ago I made my first Zelda cosplay and I'm still rather happy with how it turned out! My friend also did such a good job with the photos! Costume made and patterned by me #cosplay #sewing #zelda #zeldacosplay #tearsofthekingdom #totk #loz

I have never cared about who wins an Oscar as much as I have cared about Paul Tazewell winning for the Wicked costumes. So incredibly well deserved, he did a mind-blowingly fantastic job with every little detail and I cannot wait to see part 2

My aunt gave me just a little of this trim a while ago and I thought it would make a lovely waistband on a skirt, so I made this outfit! #sewing #fashion #historybounding #vintage

Happy St. Davids Day!! Flashbacks to one of the first dresses I ever made years and years ago out of some repurposed old skirts my mom got me back when we lived in Cymru. I have learned much about dressmaking since this one haha. Can't wait to go back in October!!
