This obviously needs sleeves/a collar...but this is the work I've done on stocking so far :) 

I'm not IN LOVE with the skirt length, I think I'd like to see it about 3 inches shorter, but I'll wait and see what the client wants to do :)

This is the work I've done on the Dorothy skirt for Dorothy from Big O. I also did stockings skirt, but I haven't gathered it yet, and I honestly see no point in taking a picture of a GIANT rectangle. 

So in about an hour or two I'll upload some pictures of the progress I'm making!

Boning is boning and boning is good.

This coat has like 20 yards of boning in it, praise the cosplay gods for the day I accidentally ordered 38 yards of featherlite boning...

It looks a bit sack like...but at least it features 13 inch deep pockets and 2 1/2 inch buttons 8D
it's almost done...I'm gonna go ahead and call it 50% done, because all it's missing is sleeves/cuffs/and to be lined with the final bias tape placed on.

HURRAY

A completed Mad Moxxi and what is beginning to look like the beginning of my Subway Masters commission. 


It's a hard lie being a Dahlia. 
A hard life indeed.
