I desperately needed a new costume for Anime Boston, but I only had a few days to design and construct it! Follow along with my process, and see how I used some unconventional patterning techniques to make something that fit me AND didn’t fall off me at con. I’m so happy with this costume, I could die from the cuteness!

A very special thanks to Beatrice Forms, who generously sponsored the Beatrice MINI dress form. It’s a gorgeous, incredibly useful asset to my designing tools, and I can’t wait to create even more things with it! I am still blown away by how quickly this Totoro-inspired costume came together. Thank you Beatrice Forms!
