| buttons! |
Sewed on the first 4 buttons, but I'm still sewing the hem's bias tape, and I keep losing my gauges for the bias tape, I've made 3 already. But, although it takes time, I quite enjoy sewing the bias tape.
Meanwhile, I've been crunching the time I have until ComicCon Portugal, in no way I will have this costume complete by then. Actually, I've been working at a good rhythm, but I still want to make this one at a slow but steady pace, which won't be enough to finish it. I'm not worried, I have costumes I can wear, if I decide to go. That's something still to decide, but I've had no answer from the person coordinating the cosplay competition, in order to do my research backstage, the entrance fee is an abuse of €37 just for Saturday, and now there are new covid rules. We have to be tested for big events, and pharmacies have been overwhelmed with test requests. I've been entering competitions to win tickets for CC, and I guess that's the only way I'll be attending, if I win a ticket.
So, I'll keep working on this costume, I think I'll have the jacket finished before the new year, most of the bias tape is already sewn, and then I only need to finish the sleeves and the closures, both real and fake ones. To complete are the gloves, the skirt's hem, and the 3D teacup, still to begin are the bloomers (only the patterns are made), and covering the shoes, which, by the way, are very comfortable.
+ I'm enjoying hand sewing the costume again.
- I'm not really bummed a out ComicCon, I'm not a fan of the event, and I don't have the money, and most probably the patience.
THE CUNNING PLAN
Finish the jacket. Finish the sleeves, attach them to the jacket.
