So I ordered my Mikasa wig and it came in! I had a lot of fun playing with it and taking pictures at night xD
I'm so excited! I even was able to get the fabric to make my scouting legion jacket! Though I'm still trying to figure out how I'm gonna make the pattern first for the jacket O_O I was so scared when I looked at it online because it looks different then it does in person (so glad I went and got it in person haha!) Here's what type of fabric I bought: http://www.joann.com/sew-classic-bottomweight-solid-classic-twill-tobacco/10493658.html#prefn1=isProject&start=18&prefn2=isProject&q=twill&prefv2=false&sz=18&srule=price-low-to-high&prefv1=false
and here it is in person and in different lighting and a bonus cat picture! x3
Wish me luck on figuring this stuff out! 8D

Yay some Zatanna Zatara progress
I was finally able to start working on modifying this jacket that I bought to make my tailcoat jacket for my Zatanna Zatara! All that is left to do on this jacket is make the tails longer and pointy! x3
I simply just put on the jacket and quickly marked a small line where I wanted the front of the jacket to stop at. I then proceeded to take the jacket off, fixed my line, took out the buttons that were on the jacket and then cut through the fabric. I've just sewen up the ends and I'm still trying to figure out on how I'm going to make the tails longer. As soon as i figure it all out I'll update! :)

Woot! I'm back! I went to a gathering 2 weeks ago and here's a picture of me from the gathering, still need my bowtie and school patch and gotta be brave and cut the bangs xD I dressed up my niece as Fluttershy and my nephew as Darth Vader! :)
And just recently I've decided that I wanna cosplay from the new anime series: Attack on Titan! I've already chose to be Mikasa, Sasha and Christa! :D I remembered that I have this jacket that I could so totally use as a pattern to make my Scouting/Survey/Recon (which ever name you prefer xD ) Legion jacket! :D I can't wait! I'll be cosplaying as Mikasa first and I think Sasha will be second and then Christa third...it all depends whether I buy Christa's wig first for dye my hair brown for Sasha.

Ello peeps~! I'm back again after some absence! I have done some stuff while a way from updating, like:
Starting on my oldest sister's pin up dress! I've only got the skirt part done since I don't have her full measurements due to her not living with me and she works 2 jobs.
We might make it shorter but we can deal with that later, after I make the top part that is! ^_^
As for me I have made the first part of my Zatanna cosplay which is the vest! Now what I need to do next is modify it to look more like the one she wears in Young Justice! I'm sure it'll look better after I have it cut and add the buttons xD
My 8 year old niece started making her very own dress! We're so proud of her! Hopefully she'll learn a lot faster so then she can help me with making our cosplays! :'D

Hey peeps! Sorry it took me so long to post another post (haha) well anyways I've been kind of busy and haven't been able to use my sewing machine as much but here's what I have so far!:
Here's what I have so far for my Kou (Gou) Matsuoka cosplay~! I still need to order my wig, change the buttons on the sweater, make the bowtie and then make the school patch for the jacket. I'm super excited to be cosplaying as her since she's been added to my top favorite female characters! x3 I hope to actually have some contacts to go along with this cosplay for when I attend the Free! gathering at Anime Los Angeles in January 2014!
Here I have my female version of Haruka Nanase! I borrowed my oldest sister's wig for this but I think it's a tad too short then how I wanted it but I don't want it to be really long. But for now this will do. And look what I found to go along with my cosplay! Haruka's "animal" is a dolphin and I'm super happy to have one with me! I'm thinking that for my Kou cosplay I will have all the boys "animals" with me. So I already have the dolphin and I have A TON of penguins to choose from since I have a collection of different kinds (haha!), I think I have shark toy with me and I'll have to look for a killer whale and a butterfly toy! x3
On another note I've finally decided what I wanna cosplay as for Halloween! Kuranosuke from Princess Jellyfish! He's a character in the series who actually dresses up like a woman and he's hilarious! xD I wanna make all of his outfits but this is the one I wanna make for Halloween!:
Well that's all I have for now, hope to post sometime soon with some more progress and updates of new things! :D

Now that I have fabric in my hands I feel Free! Haha if my sisters had heard me say that they would have called me an idiot! xD But anywho, I finally have fabric to make my brown skirt! But my oldest sister also bought fabric so I can make her two dresses, a shirt, and a costume for both my niece and nephew for Halloween! O___O I was super close into getting fabric to work on Kou's outfit from ep. 4 and also to start workin on Beth from Bravest Warriors but not today.
Gonna get to sewing now~! :D
1st Post! WOW!
So I thought I'd trying having a cosplay blog up so then I can write down a lot more stuff with whatever cosplay I'm working on and hopefully maybe someday it'll help someone! (A girl can dream can't she?) :'D Any-who let's hope this goes well! :D
