Well, I finally got around to making the jump to a domain in 2002. After tripod reduced free space from 50 to 20 megs I had to delete some of my pictures and needed to find them a new home. I have had my convention pictures on the web for years, first on geocities then tripod and now here. Most of my convention pictures will be from anime conventions, but I have gone to DragonCon several times to add a bit of variety.

I will be the first one to admit a lot of my costumes are not perfect, but I did put a lot of hard work into the majority of them. I have had a couple of inquiries from people asking if I would make them costumes or accessories - at this time I would have to decline. I think costumes being sold should be error free, and I admit I still make the occassional mistake.

After reading my descriptions, you will see a lot of my costumes are done without patterns. This can be a pain sometimes, but I am large and don't have an hourglass figure - so even if I can find a similiar style pattern I usually have to modify it quite a bit to fit me. I definitely would recommend any odd shaped person to get a dressform - it has made pattern alteration or pure designing on the fly so much easier.
