I just got back from Megacon in Orlando, and we had a blast.
I cosplayed as Katara's Painted Lady from season 3 of The Last Airbender.
This costume was simple in design and theory but I ran into some real difficulty with the fabric choice. It's a slightly stretchy and very thick fabric, and my machine just didn't want to sew it.
After much wrestling, I prevailed. I learned a lot about the technical aspects of sewing on this project. Overall, I was very pleased with the results, and THRILLED with the way Katara photographed.
I'm suffering from post-convention back to the real world blues, but happy to get back to my other projects! *waves*
