The Chronicles of Bunni's Adventures Into Cosplay: Day 3- Finding things that hopefully work out
My family and I went over near the Baltimore/DC area
The area between the two
Among other things that happened during that trip that I won't go into detail on, we stopped by a Joann's I saw from the highway and... I'm really glad we did!
This place was so much bigger than the ones near me! (the closest one either being where I went to high school which is an hour from where I live or Dover, Delaware which is roughly the same distance)
Luckily I picked up a pattern which I pray to God will work for my Soviet coat
Simplicity #2581
Get rid of the pockets, shortening the bottom a bit and adding the epaulets to the shoulder
My only concern is making a pea coat style from that along with extending the collar
And also one that would work perfectly for fem Romano's pink dress
Burda #7554
Move the elastic up to make an empire waist and add a few more ruffles along with a bow on the collar
Now onto fabric!
While I'm still morning the loss of this perfect specimen
I did find this for my Gauken jumper
D-do you think that would work?
It's not as bright yellow as in the picture;;
Anyway now to buy two orders of these and a pattern for the jacket and pants under the coat
