Now for some cosplay stuff. Finished the cloak for my @hannah_alexander_artwork Fly Agaric for Magfest! The undergarments are a mix of modified and recycled thrift items since this won't be a competition costume (and they're more for modest than anything else).
Need to style the wig and layer the tights but otherwise we're set for Magfest with more than enough time to spare.
So much handwork in all that embroidery/beading 🫠
I know my page (and my followers) follow me primarily for cosplay. And this page won't be dropping that. But what started as learning another skill to further that path has now evolved into it's own offshoot of a hobby. One that I find relaxing and enjoyable and brings me joy without the pressure of having to wear.
I don't have the spoons for a second account, so every now and then you'll see some of my embroidery works pop up here. These aren't part of a costume, but gallery pieces. Primarily in silk and goldwork. I do hope those who followed me for cosplay also enjoy them as much as my costume work. And occasionally the two shall meet ❤️
Also I'm terrible at naming so...

And we're done with the stitching on my Goldwork and Silk Betta fish!
Next up will be to paste the back, let it dry, and then get it off the frame to be mounted up. I'll be going with the same frame as my other fish, so you'll be able to see all the dimensions of the padding. Especially with the difference in regular light vs studio lighting.
(This was supposed to take most of the summer... and then hyperfixation took over 😅)
Little more progress, in between camp crazies and being sick. Got the gold Japanese thread all couched down and starting to work on the silk now.
Betta fish progress!
Been making slow but steady progress on the fish. I've worked out the color and stitch design I want, with a mix of cutwork and couching. I also tried to do more traditional like silk for the cherry blossoms, though it's not strictly that.
Now it's just a matter of settling in to do all the silk and Japanese thread left.
One of those 'I just got caught in working and took minimal photos' moments, but got the hat done. The two tone satin was definitely a PITA to work with, but it's good enough. Couple little wig clips stitched in and it'll stay on.

Took a little bit of work, but we're back on track with the cloak. Past me was smart and had planned the front so there were two slots for the arms that I promptly forgot about. Little seam ripping and the pattern is back on track.
Got the top layers done, so now it's just getting all those beading/sequin sections done. The large sequins are getting both e6000 and handwriting, just to make sure they stay where they're supposed to.

Next embroidery piece is starting to take shape (going from inspired by a Betta fish to a full on Betta fish). Planning it in golds,reds, and brass colors. Still working out which stitches I want where, but was able to get the design on the frame and get the padded sections on.
Summer initially starts out busy for me, teaching sewing summer camp. But I have a couple weeks of break in July to get going on both this and finish my mushroom cosplay. As to what's next? I haven't thought about it 😅
Starting in on the largest part of the cape and... have a decision to make. I can either have the squares align in a perfect grid and not have the same angle in the front(bugs me). Or I can chevron the back so they align in the front (also looks ugly AND don't like the ridge the thick trim makes.
I basted in the perfect grid for now, might play with pleating/gathers/ease at the top to get the fronts aligned on angle, but that will only be finalized after all the beading.
And no, I'm not looking for help. I know that due to the nature of the pattern/drape, plus the front pieces have arm slits, I'm gonna have to sacrifice one of the things I want when I commit.
But I can at least start on the half I like with the long process of hand beading each sequin and their surroundings.
Okay. So past me was super smart and current me super dumb.
I accounted for the patterns to be on open slits for the arms (as per the design). I promptly forgot and stitched them as one cape.
Some seam ripping and adjustments later...

...back on my silly embroidery again.

#wipwednesday
Slowly progressing on hannah_alexander_artwork Fly Agaric. The cape has so many layers and I'm enjoying going slow with handwork. It'll be a bit before I finish blanket stitching the beaded edge and sequins, and then I'll have to work on the checkered lower cape and collar.
Then I can think about *gestures vaguely to the rest of the cosplay*. My current strategy for coping with burnout is not thinking too far ahead and just crafting one thing at a time.

Having someone ask ChatGPT in a meeting is like being a grown-ass professional adult in a room full of other grown-ass professional adults trying to solve a problem, while a colleague with one of those baby toys that makes animal sounds repeatedly presses the cow button. And we all have to stop what we're doing and listen to cow go moo and say "wow hm yeah that's not really what we're asking but the cow does definitely go moo, good thoughts"
