Started working on the dress. Deciding whether to keep it all black with the over skirt or to spice it up with this red Chinese dragon print. Hmm, decisions, decisions. #cosplay #cosplayer #blackcosplay #poccosplayer #poccosplay #blackcosplayer #genderfluidcosplayer #cosplayprep #costumer #costuming #blackgirlmagic #seamstress #sewing #wakandaforever #cosplayprep #crafter #crafting #queenramonda #blackpanther https://www.instagram.com/p/B7XsH8Dju86/?igshid=o04dsqjrzmnw

Happy Black History Month! Let's get this thing started. It's about to be 28 days of #ALLBLACKEVERYTHING Starting with a shout out to all my beautiful Black and Proud Women! Our "attitude" is always demeaned in us, but praised in others. Live out loud and proud. Don't let anyone silence you because you speak your truth and it's hard for them to stomach. #stayloud #blackhistory #blackfuture #wakandaforever #blackpeoplerock #blackisbeautiful #myblackisbeautiful #blackwoman #blackwomen #blackgirlmagic #blackcosplayer #blackcosplay #wewillnotbesilenced https://www.instagram.com/p/B8C0zJID8J8/?igshid=1h7to42xlirv

Finished the netting for the head piece and added the hanging beading on. Gotta get some chains to help with the accents. The head piece isn't that heavy which was a concern. #cosplay #cosplayer #blackcosplay #poccosplayer #poccosplay #blackcosplayer #genderfluidcosplayer #cosplayprep #costumer #costuming #blackgirlmagic #seamstress #sewing #crafting #crafter #oya #warrior #yoruba #goddess (at Suga Bear Co) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4s2aXPjciY/?igshid=5g20du4dk805

A little more to the headpiece done. Now I just have to cover some exposed spots and paint the gold feather silver before adding the beading. #cosplay #cosplayer #blackcosplay #poccosplayer #poccosplay #blackcosplayer #genderfluidcosplayer #cosplayprep #costumer #costuming #blackgirlmagic #seamstress #sewing #crafting #crafter #oya #warrior #yoruba #goddess https://www.instagram.com/p/B38my__Dldf/?igshid=2ae21zmn49x0

I need this laugh today. Where are my fellow therapists? I might need to break this down in a session someday. 😂😂😂😂 #therapist #therapy #selfcare #laughter #cosplaytherapy #tiktok https://www.instagram.com/p/B2HPYeEDhav/?igshid=1s3cdxakhoqab

I might have started a bit on the scythe as well. But now I'm really taling a break, I'm hungry, lol. #cosplay #cosplayer #blackcosplay #poccosplayer #poccosplay #blackcosplayer #genderfluidcosplayer #cosplayprep #costumer #costuming #blackgirlmagic #seamstress #sewing #crafting #crafter #anime #naruto #madarauchiha #uchihamadara https://www.instagram.com/p/B1zSoOkj59h/?igshid=1o8p0ehzsorat

Working on my #gunbai for my #madarauchiha cosplay. Not sure if it will be ready for tomorrow, but after I take this quick break, I'll get back to it. I got a lot done though in a short time. Don't ask me why I have a spare broom handle laying around, lmao. #cosplay #cosplayer #blackcosplay #poccosplayer #poccosplay #blackcosplayer #genderfluidcosplayer #cosplayprep #costumer #costuming #blackgirlmagic #seamstress #sewing #crafting #crafter #anime #naruto #gunbai https://www.instagram.com/p/B1zPv66jUlr/?igshid=graf7jd1frov

Panel was awesome today! Thanks to all who came out to support Cosplaying While Black - Chicago. Want to thank my cosplay kids @ashhuhlee and @lusciously_wickedcosplay for bringing the lnowledge as usual. See us next time @ Indy Comic Con on August 31st. #cosplay #cosplayer #blackcosplay #poccosplayer #poccosplay #blackcosplayer #genderfluidcosplayer #cosplayprep #costumer #costuming #blackgirlmagic #seamstress #sewing #wakandaforever #stormcosplay #stormcasualcosplay (at Hyatt Regency Schaumburg Chicago) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1SD7uLDEH6/?igshid=ki11jlozjmk0

Of course I'm in con crunch because I'm just getting back to my workshop, but I'm actually mostly done with the costume. Madara is coming together nicely. These scrubs match my material perfectly, so I only have to add the collar and the long pieces at the bottom of the shirt. The side pieces for the armor still have to be attached, but that's pretty quick too. The collar and the back attachments are the last bit left, so I say it's about 70% done. Idk if I'll get et his weapons completed in time, but trust I'll try. Hope to see you all next week at Wizard World. Stop by the USS Chiberia Table, especially if you like Star Trek. Captain Madara Uchiha of the USS Chiberia will get you signed right up! 😂😂😂😂 #cosplayer #cosplay #blackcosplay #poccosplayer #poccosplay #blackcosplayer #genderfluidcosplayer #cosplayprep #costumer #costuming #blackgirlmagic #seamstress #sewing #crafting #anime #naruto #madarauchiha #uchihamadara #usschiberia #cosplaymashup #starfleet https://www.instagram.com/p/B1QcjqpD96t/?igshid=hgcht1otnh1j

I figured I'd get started on my Madara armor before I go back to NJ. I can't sew while I'm there, but I can definitely get everything cut out. #cosplay #cosplayer #blackcosplay #poccosplayer #poccosplay #blackcosplayer #genderfluidcosplayer #cosplayprep #costumer #costuming #blackgirlmagic #seamstress #sewing #crafter #crafting #anime #madarauchiha #naruto https://www.instagram.com/p/B0hIc1vDkOe/?igshid=mczl87ne6d84

A met a young lady at Wakandacon and when she saw my business card, she asked what was Group Cosplay Therapy. So for those who may not know, it's an expressive therapy that uses cosplay as a means to externalize your emotions and trauma. I do this in group format because I utilize having others to portray your antagonists. I plan to start bringing this workshop to cons, so be looking out for Cosplay Therapy workshops by Suga Bear Crafting Organization. I look forward to working with you.
