LARPer, kid-herder, casual gamer, maker of things.
Took a leather pouch class
Saw stitching chisels make a row of holes
Realized a grid wouldn't be much harder
Long story short, I cross-stitched on a leather cuff to match the outfit it goes with

Budget #larp or #renfair garb idea:
Christmas Tree Skirt.
It's a little pre-made shoulder cloak, and some of them look like they should be worn as such.

Wizard Chain: The Making Of!
I saw a picture of "Wandering 4-in-1 Chain," lost the picture, and recreated it from memory with steel and aluminum rings left over from my fiancé's previous projects.
It works great with my Wizard ensemble!

Anime Nebraskon was a blast this weekend!
I'm never good at taking pictures at events, but I especially loved all the beginner how-to panels and classes, including this #leatherwork pouch class!

Went to #Nebraskon and forgot to take any pictures at the #con 😅
Fiance's feet wore out, so here's an after-con #selfie of my Sitholorian!
(Yes, I wore a #mask all day; my lungs are trash and the last thing I need is the Con Crud)

First time helping with a #Halloween Trunk or Treat!
I got so many #kids asking if I was a girl! I told them #Wizard School doesn't accept girls so I'm in disguise, then shushed them like it was a big secret.
Everyone likes to be in on a plot!

Messed up.
Put #bananabread in too late for it to fully bake before I had to leave the house.
Didn't want my house in flames.
Turned the oven off, left the lil loaves in.
Figured at worst they were already a loss, at best the oven would cool slowly enough to finish #baking.
IT WORKED!

I made a chain for my Crow ensemble! It's a Half-Persian weave in purple, blue, and green coated aluminum rings.
In Amtgard LARP, an unadorned chain is a symbol of knighthood.

I made this shirt to go with my #goblin #garb in my #larp. It was made using scraps from old projects, also known as #cabbage, and is intentionally inside-out with all the seams showing!
#sewing can be as crazy as you make it!

Making progress on my Cabbage Garb!

When designing Cabbage Garb, I usually measure carefully, mark out how large an area the fabric needs to cover, then start throwing pieces on the floor until they fit.
(Cabbage= scrap fabric left over from other projects)

Master Rose Hood awarded for service in my #larp
The #phoenix is a personal design created for the wearer based on elements from an Anhinga and the phoenix of a beloved #Amtgard player that has passed away.
And yes, it has #pockets

I made some sashes for my #larp! The color denotes the class being played, and the silver trim shows that the wearer is a Paragon, an expert in that class.
They have hidden pockets to hold spell lists.

I hope whoever threaded this bobbin stubs both their pinkie toes!
It came with the machine, apparently full, and has run out of thread three times so far because they just wound new lengths of blue thread over top of old lengths.

It's me;

And I'm tripping on cats.

Knighting surcoat for a pal in my #larp!
The crown on the front is part of our kingdom #heraldry.
The stars on the back are our family heraldry, and the shield with wolves is his personal heraldry.
I incorporated northern lights and maple leaves (some pockets!), as he lives in #Canada.

My wrist is healed and the project is finished!

My wrist is doing better, so I'm back to work. But this wolf applique has a lot of corners!

Finally putting together a project I cut out almost two years ago, before I got long COVID and lost the energy to do anything but survive.

Designed as the Morwen cosplay to match my fiance's Telemain, this dress was adapted to fit the Witches and Cowboys reign theme in my LARP and features two zippered pockets in each sleeve!

Is it, though?
Is it really??

Handkerchief-weight linen tunic I mended for a friend. Most of it is NOT my work, so let's play 2 games:
1. Spot the patch where a hole used to be.
2. Which part did I add to the pre-existing tunic?

I made a fun Cthulhu-inspired tunic for a friend's knighting!
The threads I used for the tentacles glows in the dark, but doesn't photograph well when glowing 😅
