Pros and Cons Cosplay

I have no desire to make Rumi's costume from kpop Demon Hunters but I ABSOLUTELY want to style her wig. It looks fun. There are some characters I only want to make parts of 🤣 ANYWAY I should focus on the Abby cosplay already in the pipeline. 🤣

I'm either a great midwesterner or a terrible one but I didn't even bother to check the weather in Chicago until just now because I pack layers as a general rule and will be uncomfortable temperature wise regardless 🤣

It us!! I love @cosplayamerica.bsky.social and can't wait to go back this year!

The triforce is gon a get me through the morning: Coffee for motivation, water for hydration, protein shake for uh...gainz.

List: The more than 500 JOANN stores expected to close amid second bankruptcy filing When JOANN filed for bankruptcy last month, the company said it expected all of its stores to remain open.

Sigggh Joann is closing 500 stores. You can see if one near you is closing here: thehill.com/homenews/nex...

This #BlackHistoryMonth I had the incredible honor of interviewing the founder of #28DaysOfBlackCosplay to celebrate the 10-year anniversary of the movement:

Thank you! I hope it turns out ok in the end

Weaving is fun, they said. Don't worry if your pattern requires weaving in 738939 ends. 😭

You're so sweet! I just hope folks get the info they need because it is CRAZY out here in the wild lololol! Best of luck with the programming gods! I think it

Yeah seriously! It's a necessary skill imo. The Joann's scare is def a good motivator for folks to learn.

I'm ultra irritated about capcut I better get the cost prorated. 😒

A lot of places offer swatches, which helps. I learned through research, and lots of ordering swatches and sample packs but for sure it can be very daunting if you don't know where to start. It's gonna be ok though! Think of it as learning a new skill

Free workshop/panel idea: a "fabric literacy" panel. If Joann's goes out of business (we've had this scare before) a lot of cosplayers who just pick up fabric to use and don't know what it's called won't know what to do when they have to start shopping online.

Indiana and North Carolina folks apparently!

Me either until recently! I have to know how two wildly different things have the same name lol

The correct answer imo

I got this from an Indiana person. I'd never heard of it as a hat either but apparently it is a thing.

Is a tobaggan a sled or a hat. Pls state your reasoning.

Yeeee!!! I really want to! It looks like a fun build and the show is *chefs kiss

I really want to do a Vex/Vax cosplay one day with Pro. It has been a while since we've done a costume from the same series or a twin-based costume. Pray for me to make Vax's hairstyle work with my face shape 🤣

New weights! I used to prefer going to the gym to get out of the house but there's also something nice about being a monster at home.

you are a STAPLE.

But I feel this. I felt kinda bad but I think that's motivation to do more of what I like in 2025

I dont feel like I made much in 2024, mainly because I had other side quests to deal with but 2025, I'm hoping to finish up some bigger projects!

*slams fist on table* I cannot emphasize this enough if you are crafting something, even if it is ugly I WANT TO SEE IT.

It's so cute!

Handstitching in a neckband for a last minute Holmat holiday themed happi. I could machine sew it but ehhhhh. But I need to start using longer needles. My big ass hands cramp so easily with the standard sized ones.

You'll definitely be missed but I totally understand! I hope you've got good non-work plans though

I was just ::shocked Pikachu face:: but it's fine I guess I forgive her lol
