So I was wondering if anyone had successfully used a modified pattern to make Oswin's Red Dress. I found a McCall's pattern (#2476) I think would be the perfect pattern to modify but it is vintage and out of print. I've found it online but it's a bit pricy. Are there any other patterns out there that I should keep an eye out for?

Thanks in advance!

As I cannot find a suitable alternative jacket for my Wedding of River Song outfit (as River of course) I started looking for patterns.

I'm going to be cosplaying as Zoe from the Mind Robber for Convergence this summer, and I was wondering how others have handled making the catsuit. I know some of you on here have made them yourself, and I wanted to know if you found/bought a pattern or made one yourself. If you know of any place where I could get patterns for it, that would be ( Read more... )

After getting my Harris Tweed i was on a dilemma about wether to make a Time of the Angels cosplay or Victory of the Daleks. The choice mainly rested on the bow-tie, as i am planning to buy Magnoli Clothiers' Paul Smith replica when it comes out. So, although i saw a pretty much dead match for the burgundy bow-tie on another site, the shipping for ( Read more... )
