Cosplay, anyone?

I'm currently making a set of v3 uniforms for Fanime (Memorial Day weekend), but I can't seem to find anywhere to buy the patches. I'm looking to have some made, but the setup fees on embroidered patches are RIDICULOUS...so I was hoping someone else might be in a similar predicament? The more patches I order, the cheaper each patch becomes, since the expensive part is the setup.

Anyone interested? I am ordering at least three myself, and I think if we can make at least 30 the cost should be well less than $10. Also, does anyone know a company they for-sure trust to make these kinds of patches? The one I am planning to use is down the street from me, so I can look at their work in person before paying to make sure it is to par, but if someone has one they already like...O_O~

Anyway, hope it was okay to post this, and thanks much in advance<3

Oh, I do so love those overcoats. Wish I didn't have a billion things to make already. -_-;~ No guarantees yet, but thanks for hopping on board! I'll keep you updated.

Btw~ Kanda, I assume? Going to the gathering?

Yes, Kanda and yeah, I'm going to try to make it to the gathering on Sunday (still Sunday yeah?).

Awesome, you owe me a high-five. Although then we'll both be OOC. ^_^ How's it coming along so far?

Slowly. :( I actually can sew well but I'm a HUGE procrastinator when it comes to cutting out fabric. Plus my work is so busy it's hard to carve out time. I've cut out the uniform but not the lining or trim. I'll probably finish cutting over the weekend and then start sewing. I have a business trip coming up but even with that, I think I'll have time to finish. I hope. :P

What about you? You're doing 3 uniforms?! Yikes!

Haha, nah, not this time around! Just two, although I think with a few small tweaks I can make Kanda turn into Miranda (now wouldn't THAT be a fanfic). Mostly it's the combination of this and other sets - two Birth By Sleep costumes and have to finish HTTYD and pray to goodness my Rabi doesn't figure out what she wants made for the ball on Sunday 'cuz I don't want to make it! Heh~ This is perhaps why nothing turns out as well as I want it to. I'm looking forward to seeing yours. I'll try not to be too jealous!

I hear you on time. Uggggh, work. I've made the basic coats and the lining but the two aren't attached yet and then there's all the trim and things to think of. Not to mention the clothes for underneath. -_-;

ZOMG also, I'm sorry I keep poking at you. It's just SO nice to talk to someone else who's sewing. -_-;

Hey no worries. Poking back! ^_^ Actually, this is inspirational because now I HAVE to finish otherwise I'll be a total dweeb! LOL!
