A Long Overdue Update

October4

Hello everyone! This con season was a blur, and though I loved it, I am excited to finally have some down time to do things like make this post! I’ve made several updates to the site, including adding costume profiles for six new costumes, adding new photos to some older costumes, and updating my upcoming convention and costumes. I’m also working on setting up a page where I can sell some of my older costumes because I’m running out of storage space for all of them. Keep an eye out for that if you have any interest!

Dragon*Con was Labor Day weekend and I wore four new costumes, and one rewear. You can check them out below, from left to right: Ygritte (Game of Thrones), Wasp (Marvel Comics), Cheryl (Archer), Cally (Battlestar Galactica), and Josie (Josie and the Pussycats)

          

     

Dragon*Con is always such an amazing event, and this year was no exception. Highlights include witnessing a beautiful wedding while at the massive Marvel shoot put on by the Superhero Costuming Forum and getting to meet Jamie Bamber and Michael Trucco from Battlestar Gallactica (while in my Battlestar costume)! I also loved getting to wear my Ygritte costume to the big Game of Thrones gathering and hanging out with all the Jon Snows. I surprised quite a few of my friends with my choice of Archer costumes, but the fans of the series made walking around half naked so worth it! Being reunited with my Pussycats proved to be just as popular as last year and just as fun. Overall it was a great time and I met so many wonderful people and got to spend some quality time with the people I love.


There was no time to rest after Dragon*Con though because AWA was less than a month later and I had to get right back to sewing to have two new costumes ready. I made a dream costume of mine, Odessa from Suikoden, and a new shiny, pink IdolM@ster costume for a Pink Diamond Luxury group with some fabulous ladies! I also rewore my Sayaka costume, this time with a full cast of girls.

          

This was my ten year anniversary of going to AWA, and though both the con and myself have changed a lot over the years, it still holds a special place in my heart. This was definitely a more laid back convention spent chilling with friends, which is partly why I don’t have too many pictures to share. Still, I wouldn’t have changed a thing! Saturday morning I picked up some friends and went on an excursion to Sublime Doughnuts. I never thought I was much of a doughnut person, but this place changed my mind with their unique and delicious creations. Check them out if you’re ever in the area! As is my tradition, I watched the costume contest Saturday night which never fails to showcase some amazing costumes from very talented people. AWA has one of the best contests around!

Now the cons have passed and my next adventure isn’t until February when I try out Katsucon for the first time. I have a lot to look forward to next year and a lot of fond memories to hold on to from the past conventions. Please check back as I will be updating photos as they come in, and as always, thanks so much for reading and for following my work!
