More Research

So this week Victoria has sewed her skirt together and added pleats to it. I have finished my cosplay and now I have begun researching accents. My character is Hungarian, so I thought I would see what it takes to create a Hungarian accent. So far I have realized that I am terrible at accents, but I shall continue to practice and research the dialect patterns that Hungarians have when they speak English.

Until Next week!

More Progress

Hi Everyone,

So this week Victoria cut out the pattern for her skirt and started to sew the lining on it. As for me, My mother wasn't home to show me how to sew on the polka dots so I wasn't able to do that. I did  however get a bow for the back of the skirt, now I just have to tact it on.

Until next week! :)

Work Hard and Play Hard

Hi Everyone! So this week Victoria and I went to Youmacon! We both had a lot of fun seeing all the different cosplays. Victoria hasn't finished her cosplay so she was unable to wear it. I on the under hand had only a few things that needed to be added (the brown polka dots above the brown stripe on the skirt, a red bow in the back and red string around the wrists) so I wore my Hunagry/Elizaveta cosplay and even went to a photo shoot for the anime that I'm cosplaying form (Hetalia).

Here are some pis from the photo shoot.




This week Victoria plans on finishing the bodice and I want to finish the last touches on my outfit.

Until next week!

Too Much Candy For You!

Hi everyone! Happy belated Halloween!

So this week Victoria and I have made progress as usual. Victoria took another trip to Joanne Fabrics and bought fabric for her skirt and cut out the pattern. I have finished almost my cosplay! I sewed the vest and  found an old dress shirt from my dad and altered the sleeves. Now all I have to do is add the brown stripe on the skirt and the bow on the back and then I'm finished!

So next week Victoria plans to start to sew the skirt and add some more detailing to the bodice. I should have it done by tonight (November 1st, 2013), and just in time too. After I finish my cosplay, Victoria and I are off to Youmacon, which is an annual convention held in Detroit at the Renaissance Center.


Thanks and untill next week!
