knit sets
Below you'll find posts about the 3 different "knit sets" I've made - the first in 2021 out of some Stitch stretch knit, the second in 2022 out of some Marvel fabric (drawn by me!), and the third in 2023 out of Star Wars stretch knit.

haul out the holly
Hey look I’m posting on time this week! Which is good because I won’t be posting on time next week, it’s CHRIMAS. Well first lets post the new photoshoot results. The Scarlet Witch disneybound dress! I did add the sleeves just before the shoot. I wanted to do that as soon as we got back from the cruise, but as…

~the cruise report~
Yall I had over 1500 photos to go through when we got home. So it’s taken me a hot minute to get everything lightened (every iphone photo inside had to be lightened…), uploaded, culled, etc. So let’s dig in! Thursday 2/15 we got up bright and early and hit the road. I felt SO BAD the entire time leading up…

Dragoncon 2023 – the costume recap
Ok so to keep my Dragoncon recap free of long paragraphs about costume minutiae, I decided to just make a separate post. 1. 18th Century Barbie Like I said in the main recap post, it was really nice to get to bring this costume back after it had such a disastrous debut at Dragoncon 2015. Literally I nearly had a…

i’ve achieved a state of clear
It feels really good to be almost done with 6 new costumes + soft parts for 2 costumes for Chase nearly a month before Dragoncon. Ok so I’m just gonna go through my pics in order. We finally made our own badge ribbons to hand out this year! Obviously I’ll be handing out the Space Bun Club ribbons LOL And…

it’s a world of tears
Well hi I’m back from Disney World. The trip was great, but also weird. It felt rushed. How does a week+ trip feel rushed? I’ve no idea. Luna knew something was up and was saaaaad Wednesday night I went and picked up Kevin. I got to do the surprise I’ve been planning for months. “Hey Kevin are you ready to…

im tired of my winter clothes
We get one nice day and then a storm blows in and makes it cold again. Had to wear a sweater to Easter. Can’t remember the last time I had to wear something warm on Easter. Like the title says, I’m really tired of my winter clothes at this point and I’m ready to move on to shorts for a…

take a look, it’s in a book
Boy it has been a busy week, I actually have a lot to talk about for once. I spent most of last week finishing my dapper Leia shawl. Rebel symbols about 50-7% done? Symbols done, shawl hemmed. The hemming wasn’t as neat as I would’ve liked, but I did it by hand and I’m still babying my right arm. (It…

im mad at disney
This morning has been an absolute clusterfuck. Today was our day to book dining, so Chase and I were up at 4:30 and ready to go with my list. Nothing came up til 5, and then the only thing we were able to book was dinner for our first night. I could see the dates after that and times but…

art dump
Oh hey I forgot to include this in the post yesterday so here’s a rare second post in a week. I finished the Marvel project! I ended up adding 4 more characters to the original planned 24 because they weren’t fitting right, I needed a few more. Since finishing them I’ve gotten them all put together on one file and…

disney trip report part 1
Well HI (said like the viral cat video) We are obviously back from Disney and I’m still recovering. I had WANTED to post about the trip on Monday (before I forgot everything…) but I was lazy over the weekend and didn’t download our pics. I got my iphone pics downloaded Monday and then had to struggle through individually downloading photopass…

and talk about the weather
I have just 8 more days of work before Disney. In those 8 days I am scrambling to have everything ready for work for me to be ABLE to go out of town without being stressed about it. I blocked off some time one morning this week to focus only on making sure all of the info for my coworkers…

its not always going to be this grey
It started out rainy, dark and cozy this morning, especially with the time change, and now the sun is stabbing me in the eyes. WTF. I had to pin a blanket over my window just to get some work done. Also yall can pry DST out my cold dead hands. People who want to switch to winter time year round…

young rich & tasteless
Just one more week before Daylight Savings Time. I can’t wait. I hate the current state of light right now. I’ve been having to pin a blanket over my work office window in the mornings because of the light stabbing me in the face every morning. Also I like the summer “time” best. So last week was… rough. I was…

2020 wrap-up
I always looking forward to doing my end of the year costume wrap-ups. This year is sad. I really didn’t think a year could get worse than 2019 and that 2020 would be a great year. Instead we got a dumpster fire. I’m angry, sad, depressed. All I want is to get eat pizza in a restaurant. Anyway. I did…

leave me alone to die
Well it’s been a week. When I posted last week I wasn’t all that concerned about our disney trip getting canceled. I figured things would have blown over by then. I was a little more concerned about our con 2 weeks before disney but only like 20% worried. Now, I’m pretty sure both are going to get canceled and I’m…
