Custom X Jacket

Oh anig- we're almost a month into the new year and no new posts??  What is the matter with you? What are you doing? 

Don't worry, I've been working, knitting giant sox and new designs. Upcoming costumes include Batgirl, Robin and plenty of Guy Gardner work!

In the meantime feast your eyes on this custom X jacket. 

My dyeing fabric post detailed how to dye some white sweatshirt fleece yellow, and that yellow ended up on this jacket.

The kitteh would wish you happy holidays, but she's otherwise occupied. 

Enjoy! 

Dyeing Fabric

One week until Xmas! Are you ready? I thought this week I'd give a peek into some background work I occasionally do- dyeing fabric. One of my biggest obstacles while sewing always seems to be getting the proper fabrics, or the proper color fabric that I am looking for. I especially have trouble with greens and yellows, don't ask me why. But now I've got the know-how, space and equipment to dye my own super yellow!

Before and after if you couldn't take the suspense! 

I dyed 100% cotton white sweatshirt fleece.

Super Sox at Allentown Comic Con

Where is the time going?? Turkey day come and went and Xmas will be here and gone just as fast! What does that mean? It means it's time for you to order your very own Super Sox !

Last week I showcased at the Allentown Comic Con, and had a blast. 

 Peter "Chewbacca" Mayhew got in on the fun with his brand-new Chewsocca Super Sox!

Mr. Mayhew also found a new use for Super Sox- as Monster Sox Puppet. He has also hired me to knit him some actual wearing socks.

  

Some of my blog readers may recognize part of my Booster Gold costume on my dummy there, I brought it and set it up because it lights up and is fun. 

I met a lot of fun people, and the Super Sox were well received!

Miranda from Halo

The family that trick-or-treats together......in matching costumes.....is awesome!!!

I can't take credit for the incredible amount of awesomeness that is going on, just the Miranda jacket.
