So I've been working on a cosplay for a couple of weeks, I figured I was aiming to get it completed for next year but I've had some spare time over the past couple of weeks and decided to get a start on it to keep myself busy whilst I've been home. I didn't tell anyone because I haven't sewed anything in...10 years? Maybe longer. So there was potential for disaster...but here is my semi-completed Idris cosplay
It was a bit of a rush to get it done for the 50th but I sort of got there. There's a bit I'd like to adjust (skirt needs to be a bit shorter, needs a few more layers, lace needs adding to the top, bows need redoing...that sort of thing) and some of it was safety-pinned together. But actually...I'm sort of pleased. I had a lot of help from my mother because I haven't a clue where to start threading a sewing machine and Clara Oswald because I can't figure out a pattern without help. I wore it to the Spaceport on Saturday and even got recognised which was nice =) expect to see a slightly more complete version of this at a few cons next year =)
