Break- Mad Hatter



Our first project for 2014!

My fiance picked out this outfit. He's been wanting me to make this one for a while now. We were going to start with this one, using the same pattern we used for Abel's white coat. Sadly we never got any pictures of our TB cosplays. I'm thinking about using a heavy weight fabric, something with a soft texture.But if we can't find the right purple-blue shade I'll switch and use whatever fabric we can find that is the right color.

The pattern I'll be using again.

Like I had to do with Abel's coat I'll be using a different collar. Most likely the same one I used for Abel's but slightly smaller in size. The bottom of the coat will be the most fun to create. With all those holes and tears, it'll be something new for me but it'll be lots of fun to create. 

We'll be buying a hat at the local Halloween store for the base of the top hat, since making them are a pain in my ass. I'm going to use this as a chance to improve on my neatness and hemming. Since the coat is fairly simple it should be a good chance for me to focus on my skill. I also want to make the inside much cleaner. That means full lining. 

So I'm pretty excited to start this so I can improve as much as I can before we start on Seth and Abel. As our goal is to enter those into few contests. So I really am aiming to improve as much as I can before we start on those. 

I'll be updating more about Break once we start collecting materials.
