My FFXIV white mage cosplay is complete! Based on the neo ishgardian top of healing from the game. The underdress I bought, but this was my first time making a proper corset. It's based on the Pretty Housemaid corset from the 1890s. I had to make significant edits to the pattern and I'm really happy with how it came out!

Finished my Sophie cosplay for Dragon Con! I'm going to try a different method of graying my hair but I'm really happy with how it came out!

Finished white mage healer's robe from FFXIV for Potate! I love how this doubles as both cosplay and garb.

Finished up this tunic commission tonight! Based on the red bull can. I really like how clean this design is and I think it came together nicely πŸ™‚

Progress on my latest project, a tunic modeled after the Red Bull can for a commission.

Just finished up this tunic for Sir Clover the Just! I'm really pleased with how this one came out. The pink linen I dyed myself and all the decorative elements are applique, no embroidery machine

The saga of the pink and blue tunic continues! I started by stitching all of the pink parts into the clover while it was still a separate piece so it was easier to maneuver. Then I stitched the clover to the body of the tunic on the back.

I usually forget to post progress pics but I think this is a great illustration of the stages of applique. From flat ironed on piece to first pass of satin stitching to second pass and detail stitching!

I dyed some fabric for a tunic commission last night. I was going for hot pink and boy did it deliver!

Saying farewell to a very well-loved tunic today so that it can be reborn! I'll be transplanting this back applique patch onto a fresh new tunic. I made the original around 8 years ago for a good friend, and despite some *interesting* choices (like a faux snakeskin trim that has since been removed), I'm still proud of this one. This was a very ambitious applique project for me at the time!

Now that they've been given, I made this Paragon Druid sash bag and belt flag scroll for my man-at-arms, Avarice! The bag is based on the bag of holding from the D&D 5e manual. The scroll I designed in Photoshop and then had it printed on fabric.

I had the honor of making garb for my squire sister, Arco Briarbow's, knighting this weekend! I'm really thrilled with how this came out ❀️

Guess what I'm making? I'd say wrong answers only but I don't think you'll guess πŸ˜‚ Hint: that's foam in the bottom bag

Recently made this "pirate shirt" and skirt based off of 18th century men's shirt and petticoat patterns! The skirt is made with linen I dyed myself. Overall, I'm super happy with these both as separate pieces and one outfit!

I recently made myself this fun cottagecore corset top/renaissance faire style bodice! It was different doing something this structured, but I'm really happy with how it turned out. The pattern is the Renaissance Bodice by Rabbit and Hat patterns.
