For a long time I've worked on and off creating costumes from images that I've seen. I've always enjoyed the process of bringing people's designs out into the real world and now I've decided that I would like to share that process. What you see here will be the journey from the beginning to the end of each outfit and prop that I have decided to create. I hope that what I do may bring inspiration to others as much as other blogs have brought much inspiration to me.

The Gardens of May is my sanctuary. A place that is warm like the colors of autumn and forever new like the beginnings of spring.

A new little friend...

After my last little project making the bird, I decided to make a present for a friend of mine. As a thank you for deciding to open up a stall with me at an upcoming convention. And I had just the idea to do it. This was a modification of a pattern I had, the "wings" were a first time effort and I might change the design if I ever visit this little friend again. I actually went through a few different wing designs before I settled on this one. The ears were adorable and I might just keep the ear design for any future little creatures I decide to make.

But this little guy took one and a bit seasons of Daria to finish and I hope she likes him. He was really fun to experiment with. He's 14.5cm tall and from wing tip to wing tip he measures 24cm.
