    #44-45: King Odysseus

    One Greek chiton, one robe made from dustsheets. Machine embroidery around the neckline. Some artistic license used – no actual proof of anything like this ever existing.

    #35 & 36: Post Apocalyptic Bunting

    So I took the challenge to set dress a market stall for The World Went Dark. A fortune teller needs a sign advertising their services, so the ‘crappy bunting’ was born. Well actually this is ‘Gyptian heirloom bunting – not that the ‘Gyptian can read it. ๐Ÿ˜‰

    It’s on Etsy too!

    I also made five sets of regular triangular crappy bunting too. Which I suspect will appear on Etsy sometime soon as well.

    #8: Octopus Dice Bag

    2016-04-11 07.03.12

    A test piece for a new endeavour. (Ssssh… it’s all a bit under wraps at the moment). It needs it’s drawstring, but it’s almost there.

    Hand dyed fabric left over from Simon’s Mythlore costumeย and a cute Octopus from Urban Threads.

    I learned a few things during construction, mostly that I need to make the base fabric another half inch or so wide for it to be able to fit on the free arm of the machine and make construction much, much easier. I need to use a measuring foot for accurate stitching of the cord channel. And I need to batch construct these pieces to make it more worthwhile.

    I’m also teaching myself to digitise images on my embroidery software, for a top secret project with a friend.

    I have this test piece left over, I have no idea what to do with him. ๐Ÿ˜€

    #6 & #7: 13thC Fantasy Surcoat & Tunic

    For Highguard at Empire LRP!

    That’s 17 machine embroidered compass designs in total, the design around the hem goes all the way around to the back.

    Unfortunately Ikea LENDA fabric doesn’t seem to allow stain removal, so it’s rather grubby and brown in places despite multiple washes.

    #5: Headphone Drawstring Bag

    A simple drawstring bag. Embroidered on the embroidery machine, overlocked for construction on the overlocker, and topstiched on the sewing machine.

    #4: BB8 Machine Embroidered Cable Bag

    There’s a flaw in the machine embroidery, but I still thought that BB8 was cute enough to turn into a cable bag. It’s going to get kicked around Adam’s office and shoved in and out of his suitcase anyway, so I’ll make a new one when it inevitably falls apart.
