- Christmas stuff
- Morrigan cosplay
- role playing armored vest
I didn't get to make any Christmas decorations this year because I was so busy at work (the toy shop), but I did make a gift for my mom!
I made her this sequenced card holder/wallet that she wished for. It is small, but took me a while to make, but she always gets happy when I make her stuff, so it was a thrill to see her unwrap it Christmas eve.

| This is the final result! I'm so happy with it |
The best gift all Christmas eve was the one my sister and I gave our mom together. We went to a photographer and got a bunch of photos taken of the two of us together, but also separately. They turned out really nice, and made a great gift for my dad, mom and uncle - I guess my grandma also gets some, but she boycotted Christmas some years ago, so she wasn't at Christmas eve. she's a bit loony in that way.
Anywho, here are some of the photos we got from the shoot.
Morrigan cosplay
I had loads of time off to myself after Christmas and new years passed, so I got a really great start on this cosplay. I will make a separate post about the progress and the steps on the way (with lots of photos) soon. But at the moment I have the top allmost done and the base of the wings are ready to be covered in fabric.

I'm making this for my fiancé. Him and his friends roleplay in the woods once a mont, and he needs some new gear. I'm making him this armoured vest which he helped design himself.
 |
| This is the front piece, made from leather we pulled of an old couch. The numbers help me with seeing which piece goes where. |
 |
| This goes inside the leather vest. It's made from linen viscose which I padded in 2 layers. Inside each square are metal plates. |
The stuff from this post will eventually all have a separate step-by-step walk through.
