[ID: Three images; top right, several quilted pieces are laid out, which in the top left image have been sewn together to make a bag lined with fabric covered in camping-themed images. Bottom image is a large front view showing the finished bag; the fabric patchwork contains dachshunds, California Flag bears, and on the sides, dinosaur skeletons, with more camping fabric for the strap. There is a heart stitched onto the front, a Chicago Ornithological Society patch on the flap, and two buttons that look like clock faces, which hold the flap shut with elastic loop closures.]
The sewing project I referenced recently is nearly complete! It's a toddler-sized messenger bag with loop closures friendly to little fingers for my baby niece U, daughter of my brother-from-another-mother R. U will be two years old this July, although the gift is for when I see her this April.
I was sad to learn in a recent conversation with R that he and his wife Q, who I liked very much, are divorcing. I can't say I was entirely surprised; I love R but both he and Q are strong personalities and they've been dealing with a lot, separately and as a couple. Baby U is young enough, and her parents both self-aware enough, that it's been as easy on her as it can possibly be, but it's still a big upheaval for a tiny child and I thought she might like to have a little bag made just for her, for treasures or a stuffed toy or similar.
Besides, messenger bags are the one "fashion" thing I'm into, and as the Messenger Bag Uncle I have to make sure she learns early how fantastic they are.

IT IS HAPPENING LADS!! SAM VIMES COSPLAY!!
I've dreamed of doing this for years and now that I've finally gained the Secret Knowledge of Foam Armour, I can finally go for it!
Jokes aside, I asked a couple of cosplay pros for advice at the last con and they were all super nice & answered every single one of my questions, in detail!
So far the breastplate, backplate and badge are done and I'm super happy. Detailed process under the cut!
How it went:
First, the pattern! Shoutout to the guys at cosplay-atelier for the recommendation. They pointed me to kamuicosplay, because they sell downloadable patterns for all sorts of things, including armour. Which is how I got to this:
Downloaded two of their breastplate patterns, smooshed them together and altered them to fit my body and the look I wanted. I did all of that with thick paper. Then I took it apart again and traced the bits onto 5mm EVA foam that I ordered from a cosplay store.
Then I numbered and cut all the pieces and glued them together! I used hot glue, cause it's more accessible and less intimidating for me than other types of glue. It isn't as strong as other recommended glues, but works fine for me. (used many pointers from this tutorial.)
However, safety point: I've seen it recommended to wear breathing protection when heating up foam in any way whatsoever, and that includes hot glue, heat shaping and heat sealing. Use a respirator or other breathing protection that is made specifically for chemical fumes & work outside or in a well ventilated area (i.e. open ALL the windows)! Ask at your local hardware store if you're unsure.
PSA over. Now to the painting stage!
The scratches I made with my fingernails and the tip of a pair of scissors. XD Then I covered everything in 2 layers of black flexipaint (which is a water-based flexible paint/primer that works really well on foam). After that, I worked with regular artist's acrylic paint. Above you can see the first layer being applied with dry-brushing.
Then I went over it with a dark brown wash to make it look dirty (mix black & brown acrylic paint with water & apply liberally)
Then I went over it again with bronze by applying the paint with my fingers, wearing a plastic glove. (Same tutorial as before.) making sure I don't get any paint in the scratches. And then finally, another dark brown wash to make it all look nicely weathered. I did accidentally remove some paint by going over it too often with the wash, but it wasn't too hard to fix.
And this is the costume test, after adding velcro! It's really easy to put on and take off. I'm a bit worried about the velcro on the sides, but I can always add straps on the outside if it doesn't hold up.
Next was the badge:
I referenced a pin badge that came out as a collectible a few years ago (sadly out of stock), cause I love the design! Carved in the letters and lines by drawing on it with a ballpoint pen and applying a lot of pressure. Then painted it with the same process as the breastplate, just with copper instead of bronze.
And just for funsies: here's the back of the breastplate in all its glorious mess XD
On the right side you can see how I attached the badge: By cutting a slit through the breastplate and making a velcro attachment. That way I can remove the badge and add, say, a sprig of lilac, should my fancy take me there. Reason being that our biggest con is in May.
If you know, you know.
Annnnd here it is; the finished breastplate with badge:
I'm honestly having the time of my life. It's a super fun project and I am very excited to see how it turns out! I'm already working on the cape with a good friend of mine (I despise sewing, she loves it XD) and have materials on the way to make some bits of chainmail.

Finally finished the book nook project I got for Christmas! Aziraphale's Bookshop (Knockoff Edition) is now housed in with my novels.
This is not a great project to do when you have measurably low manual dexterity and an attention disorder, but that's part of why it took so long, I went really slow and was really careful, used a lot of glue and q-tips and multiple scalpel blades. I still fucked up a handful of things, but if you can't spot 'em I'm not gonna mention them. :D
[ID: Four photographs of one of my bookshelves, with all my novels on it; dividing the Shivadh novels from the rest is a small diorama of a bookstore, designed to look like you're peering into the space between books. It has a central room with a bench, a napping dog, and a fireplace; upstairs there are bookshelves, a desk, and a free-standing rack of books. Two of the images show it lit by LEDs wired into the walls. It looks cozy and somewhat like a slightly-clumsy tenth-grader assembled it.]

Hey y'all!
I'm very excited to share this bind! This book was made for the winner of my Fandom Trumps Hate auction via the crafts bazaar! @fandomtrumpshate
This is a tete-beche style bind where the book contains two separate fics and one is flipped upside down in relation to the other so no matter which way you hold it one of the stories is oriented for reading! The "reverse" pages with the cards are where the two stories meet in the middle. I also included a matching bookmark since the usual ribbon bookmark wouldn't make sense for this style of bind. This is my first time trying this technique (I didn't even know the name of it until I was halfway through typesetting!) But I am so happy with the result!
Fandom: Supernatural
The fics are The Glamorous Life and Hating the Weather both by Rivkat.
I just mailed it off, so I'm eagerly awaiting confirmation that they got it!
#ask me whatever you want y'all#fanbinding#bookbinding#supernatural#sam winchester#dean winchester#fth 2024#fth crafts baazar#im so proud#its my first time mailing one of my binds to someone (though it wont be the last!)#i hope they like it#it was like making two books except i only needed half the glue lol

pixel art Lower Decks papercraft templates, thanks to my minecraft skin making skills and pixel papercraft's minecraft character generator. Skin textures for use in the actual game below the cut.
I'll be posting more photos of these as i print and assemble them. I actually have to do a test print--my printer is an old office printer that doesn't make super contrasty, saturated images, and i'm worried it will whitewash mariner and rutherford if i don't edit the color values a bit.
you can't download the guz skin because that's my actual minecraft skin lol.
