4th April 2013: Costume complete! One bowl of cereal later and I am done!

My stomach aches so much... The cereal bowls at home are far bigger than the ones I'm use to at Uni but I carried on eating because cereal is just so good D:
What am I even talking about...?

Sorry for the Instagram filter.

3rd April 2013: Jacket 100% I hate fur...

Again, I threw all professionalism out the window due to my rage against prices at my local fabric store. I'd love to line the thing in polycotton or cotton, but I just cba! :P

I'll bring my lint roller with me to the con...

3rd April 2013: Skirt 80% Hi, I have a skirt, I could have made me more professional by using interfacing in the waistband but when the fabric was £7.99p/m I mentally decided to go on strike and throw all professionalism out the window... Thus the hem isn't very neat either. I kinda regret doing this now but what's done is done, I'm still ill and I cba to unpick it at certain points just to make it that much neater. Especially as the ruffles will hide all imperfections!!

Brb, I need cereal.

3rd April 2013: Top 100% Took me 2hrs but all the polka dots are painted on :D

I got a bit lazy, especially at the back, but it's covered by the jacket any way. I also made a few splatters by mistake when I wasn't paying attention but again, they're at the back.

Now to get started on the actual sewing part of the costume!

3rd April 2013: Top 40% Why did I think hand painting the polka dots was a good idea...?

I'm slowly running out of guilty pleasure TV. Most of the stuff I usually watch on iPlayer are no longer on there :'(

Hello my image decided to error on me... I don't know why.
