Finished! My wife made her Xena costume a few years ago and I finally made a Gabby to match 💛🗡
My wife and I dressed in full cosplay as Xena and Gabrielle. Costumes are handmade with leather and worbla for armor. My wife and I dressed in full cosplay as Xena and Gabrielle. Costumes are handmade with leather and worbla for armor.

She's almost done!! I've had a lot of fun figuring out all the details on this and learned how not to do a lot of things 😅 Xena and Gabrielle seriously have the coolest costumes of any show in that era.

That feel when the laser cutting pattern is too small and you have to resize and redo the entire thing 🫠
Just a reminder to double check measurements when you buy patterns and dont make them yourself.

Currently fighting with my allegedly heavy duty sewing machine and this leather.
Various green leather pieces and Highland cow patterned fabric scattered on the floor. Nothing is sewn together yet because my sewing machine is fighting me.

South of Midnight is such a cool game. The visuals, the music, and the nature sounds are all incredible. I keep just standing in the bayou and listening to it all. I love that her magical items are all weaving tools, passed down by women.
