Nerdanel
(March 2016)
The first costume I draped and patterned entirely on my own. Mostly an excuse to embroider flowers onto chiffon.
Copper satin top lined in gold damask; skirt made of same damask. Chiffon sleeves with hand cut, sealed, and embroidered flower petals and beads. Hand-beaded choker with drop pendant. Later: Hand-embroidered white belt backed in vinyl; laces closed at back.

Initial design

First costume test
Here you can see some of the fit issues with the top! Despite that, it's comfortable. I added more flowers a few months later.
