😲 These grounds are gorgeous!!Noting this place for a visit at some point. (But also that last statue kind of looks like a young Julie Andrews?? 🤔)

The latest jacket design I’ve been working on—this is the V2 mockup. The pocket placement is drawn on while I work on finessing the fit so I don’t have to sew pockets into every version.

Thanks! That’s the part that was giving me the most trouble. Finding the balance for an overlayer to be loose/low enough to wear over a variety of sleeve types without looking sloppy.

A little sneak peek of a new design in progress! Still needs some minor pattern tweaks before I start on the size grade testing, but this is a very promising working sample. I also gotta source a cord for the drawstring…

The last Scout Hat colour sample is complete! Finally timed myself on how long this takes to build, so with that final bit of info I can complete a costing analysis to get these on the store! Huzzah!

Those sleeeeeves!! 🤩 -chefs kiss-

Working on a new Mimic Scarf colour option!

Making some last tweaks to the visor pattern for the Scout Hat. Fixing that sad, slouchy band. Version 2.0 looks much improved.

If I hadn’t only just gotten over being sick 😭 I’m going to keep this in mind for next year…

It’s my final day at FANEXPO, make sure to come find me!

Guess what? I’m at FANEXPO this weekend! Come say hi to me.

We’re at mock-up ver. 4, but I think I’m getting close!

Still working out some of the fit issues, but at this point I’m now expert-level at sewing those bean inserts.

Picked up some new accessories for some upcoming shoots I’m planning.

Every time I make one of these belts, I fall in love with this print all over again. 🖤

The last look from our Fantasy Shoot—my prompt was “The Classic Adventurer” ⚔️

From mountains high and valleys low, oceans wide and caverns deep, adventure calls to you! Do you dare answer?

Quilted vest sample is turning out excellently! Lookit that top-stitching! Still needs some tweaks though.

Not sure what fabric the final will be? This one is made from some leftover cottons from my cosplay days.

This vest sample is my current hyper fixation. Excited to do the top-stitching on the quilted layers.

Thanks! That was exactly the vibe I was going for 😉

Now that’s a goddamn hat. Heck yeah! 🔥😎🔥

Cool hat project is complete!!

…just in time for it to be too warm to wear it. 😭

I’m so happy with the details on this piece.

This is mock-up 3 of my newest shirt design! Those bean details are looking much closer to how I envisioned, & I’ve improved at sewing them too.

Still needs work in the shoulder area—unfortunately Minerva here is not equipped with arms, so I need to find a real human to use for fit testing.

The Wanderer Hood (cotton version) is now officially sold out! Shipped out the last one on Monday.

(I’ve still got wool ones though.)

I would like to move in immediately. 😲

My buckle order has arrived! I’m thinking that middle guy is going to be the right choice for the cool hat project.

TBT!
MW-004 LITTLE WITCH DRESS - A first collection design (retired) & the start of my thumbhole sleeve obsession! I liked the secret pockets at the base of the contrast panels. All dresses should be equipped with pockets.

The Pathfinder Hood - The finished garment looks EXACTLY how I was envisioning it when I started the first design sketch. A rare case where I designed the garment specifically to showcase these rad buckles I acquired!

Mum always said the specific pasta shape name in an Italian accent, so I'm pretty sure my childhood experience was atypical

Alas, no plans for a wizard hat just yet!

As a designer, nothing gives me greater joy than hearing that my clothes speak to people ❤️

Cool sci-fi hat is still in product development stage--most likely will be adding this onto the store in the fall!
