I wanna do a ton of pretty english smocking details on my skirt but i still havent even finished the initial smocking and i fear i wouldnt finish it in time for eccc😭

Guess who got her antibiotics and prescription shampoo🥳 did she also injest weed/thc from the dog park and have to be put on iv fluids bc she had a bad reaction to it…… well yes

So poppy had an allergic reaction (aka dal crud/bronzing) due to a change in her prescription food around xmas. This is the reaction area as of today, trust me this is the calmest its looked post-bath (aka still wet) but I still worry😭 hopefully the vet prescribes her some antibiotics this week

Gathering fabric is in my top 3 least favorite things to do and i have to do over 8yds of it and thats not even that much yet here i am pushing it off as long as possible😭😭😭

Power went out right after i turned on my sewing machine😐 so hand sewing for the day it is!

Oh and the tie is just like a small amount of silk i bought from mood sewn up! Overall I’d rate this costume a 9/10, i loved wearing it, it was easy/fun to make (except the vest pattern) and I love how I look in it. Its not the most recognizable costume from ofmd but still fun!

The vest was the most stubborn part bc all i had for a pattern was this dumb joker one that was quite literally the worst pattern to alter.. But i did it! The pockets are just flaps & the buttons function but its held close by snaps. I also made a mini poster of hers to give out to people😌

For the skirt I have no pictures lol i just like fork pleated it and gave it pockets and kept the front flat idk it sort of just came together?? Its very heavy but it twirls nicely! (Keep in mind this costume was made in like 2.5 days and that includes buying the fabric)

For the shirt I used McCalls M8131, view C. I had bought literally justttttt enough to make the shirt, and it shohld be noted its actually like a crop top its not as long as the normal pattern calls for.

For fabric I went to Mood in dtla and joann. the skirt is a wool suiting and the shirt is a lt. wt. cotton from mood. The vest and lining are from joann, i wanted a really artsy colorful lining to match mary’s personality and love of art (even tho really im the only one that would see it)

I’m gonna start posting old costumes and talking more indepth about the making of them with my Mary Bonnet from Our Flag Means Death S.1 as the first! 📸1-3 by faesandphotos on IG, with the 4th by w.ndercosplay on IG (worn at Wondercon 2023)

One of poppys face spots has like completely darkened overnight and i just love her sm 😭 (i believe this is poppy at 11 weeks on top and yesterday on the bottom)

The more i stare at this barbie the more i want to make it😭 perhaps for RCCC👀

Here she is at 12 weeks (1/4yr old) with a cameo of her bestie colette🫶🏻

An outtake of poppys christmas shoot we bribed her with a lot of treats 🙈🎄🥹

The constant battle between wanting hand sewn eyelets and the ease of metal ones🥲

Slowly making my way through my mom’s barbie collection, these are comin home with me🙈

Tried to get some handsewing in but poppy decided she wanted her nap to be right on my lap🫠

My life is now measured BP (before poppy) and AP (after poppy) so I figured I’d add a poppy thread! here she is at 8 weeks

Ignore his pants those will be redone for the next holiday season but for a rush? Not my worst

Making a santa costume for a family friend’s giant jack skellington today!

I think this sums me up pretty well😌
