German Strangers Con

Back in July, I posted about going to German Comic Con and wearing my self made Eddie Munson Jacket, and going specifically for Joseph Quinn and to meet him. Unfortunately he had to cancel back in July, but the same people did a Strangers Con, which is a con specifically made for Stranger Things fans and Joseph was going to be there. 

My dad got tickets and I didn’t know he had until they announced Joseph was going to be at Strangers Con, which incidentally was also near my birthday. So going and meeting Joseph was my birthday and Christmas gift, and it was so worth it. Now onto the pictures, cause I’m sure your tired of me rambling. 





There was an opening ceremony where we welcomed them to the venue, that’s where these pictures came from. There was several other amazing actors there as well. 
Got to meet some other really good Eddie Cosplayers at this Con too! 

 


Getting ready to have him sign my Jacket and mini guitar he plays in the show!!
So excited!! This was after and funny story actually, he had to kind of stretch the fabric to sign the jacket and he asked to have me pull it and I kind of accidentally held his hand (cue the blushing) and I accidentally stole his sharpie cause the person helping him got rid of the paper that had my name on it, so I had to write it again and I stole the sharpie… (cue blushing and head in hands) 

Better pics of the jacket with the signature!! This is getting framed for sure! 
And this was the picture I was able to get with him with me wearing the jacket!! He was so sweet and just such a darling human being, even with an enormous amount of people waiting to get pictures and autographs he made everyone feel so special. Truly was an amazing day.

Month of the Military Child GIVEAWAY!!!

This month I decided to create a little gift collection of sorts that you can win by sharing the pinned giveaway post on my Facebook page and commenting on it. Super easy to enter, but a great package I think. I am going to go into a bit more detail below with each of the 4 items in the package. This is the bear, you will be able to choose from the fabric swatches below which you would like it made out of. No two bears will be exactly alike because of the fabric that is being used, some from actual uniforms, and some that is just printed, because of the design there will be some differences. (These bears are listed on the website for sale as well if you wanted to order others) Next we have a super soft toddler/lap size blanket, you can choose either purple, blue, or black. The saying is the same on all 3, 'I am resilient, I am resolute, I am relentless, I am a Military Child', all of them are the same color on the back with tossed dandelions, the official flower of the Militar...

My love affair with Candy Castle

I have been thinking about what really set me on this path with confidence and conviction; The Peppermint Swirl . My mom saw this dress and really wanted it for my sister, the pattern was purchased in January and there it sat until march with me avoiding it. I admit I was intimidated. It looked so complicated!  The above picture is the one she finally talked me into making, if you are not familiar with this dress you will not realize I completely screwed it up, it is supposed to have a swirl not ruffle look. Using my moms Facebook at the time I nervously posted in in Candy Castles group, the response was not what I expected.  People LOVED it, they wanted to know how I did it... What?! This mistake started a crazy trend for a hot minute. Something else happened too though, while I had cut it wrong, I made it! I made a really cool dress that Kaylee loved and total strangers were trying to copy! ME! Alyssa Cotter at 12 did that!   I kept...

George + Ginger Rival Dress

This is the pattern of the month for February over at George + Ginger  Which means its on sale! I am a little later in posting this than I had originally planned but still lots of time to run over and pick it up if you love it as much as I do.  This style I am wearing is a sleeveless hooded option. There is also a long, short and 3/4 sleeve, hood, neckband, or cowl neck. All feature the cool pockets on the sides.  This is the pocket detail, normally the line would be cleaner and the top and folded over, but I used a couple of panels I had as the pockets so I served the top instead.  This Fabric is from  Skylove Creations I love the style of this one, that you can use different colors and styles of fabrics to get so many different looks, make it a more fancy, or causal, perfect for work, or like this one Comic Con!
