  Cosplay

Well, when I started with my very first cosplay I was scared. Very scared. I didn't know anything about fabric, sewing stuff, sewing techniques or things like that, nothing about lace, patterns, ruffles and yarn. This whole new cosplay thing was a new chapter for me. I watched my friends sewing their costumes and it looked so easy when they did it. But when I tried out a piece of fabric on my sewing machine it was like: "Oh my god, how difficult and groggy!" and I decided to ask a friend of my mum, who was a tailor how everything works. In the end he teached me the basics but I got a lot of my knowledge by trial and error. And this is an very important point for those of you who want to join the cosplay community: nothing will work without trial and error, it'll never be work without. Even the most experienced cosplayers have trouble sometimes with their costumes. Nobody expects from you that your first cosplay is a huge ballgown or something like that. Look at my first cosplay! I had so much fun with it at my first convention as a cosplayer and I was so proud because I sewed it by myself and I'd never expected from me that I can do such things. And it looked like a dress - more or less ;')  What I want to say is: Don't be afraid to fail. It's not a shame and you can ask other cosplayers for help. I teached myself sewing by trial and error and I've learned a lot about sewing and sewing techniques by reading books, watching tutorials and asked other cosplayers.
Why I created this blog is that I really enjoy to share my cosplay work. I know how it is when you don't have any idea how to make a cosplay and when you have nobody to ask for help. I want to fill this blog with cosplay tutorials, make-up tutorials, convention videos or vlogs, DIYs but what's the most important, I want to help YOU feeding your knowledge and having fun while creating your costume.

Let's enjoy creating costumes together!
