Writer, seamstress and artist. This blog is dedicated to entertaining those who enjoy good stories and laughter.

Generally I post or reblog intriguing, original or very humorous pictures, gifs and thoughts regarding the following fandoms:

X-Men, Once Upon a Time, Doctor Who, Jane Austen, Firefly, Harry Potter, Downton Abbey, etc.

I try to stay away from controversial subjects, although I will reblog occasional posts relating to the treatment of women, or the Pro-Life movement, if it presents information in a new and thought-provoking way.

As a writer and seamstress, I'll also include posts related to these areas of creativity.

The Costumes of Once Upon a Time, Season 2 (well... part 1)

It’s here! My huge post full of critiques and praise for the costumes of the second season of ABC’s hit show, “Once Upon a Time.” Well, part one, that is! We’ve got a whole ‘nother half season still to come this winter!

(For my post on the season one costumes, as well as my view on other popular show wardrobes, check out my blog! Seamstressconfessions.blogspot.com)

The Costumes of Downton Abbey Season 3

Here it is! My detailed write-up on the costumes of season 3 of our favorite period drama! 

Just Updated my Costume Commissions Page

elenatintil:

Details on shipping, payments, fitting/alterations, types of materials I’ll work with, all those FAQ’s. 

Which is important, because I’m already booked 2 months in advance and the rest of the winter is filling up. So if you’re hoping to order something for the spring cons, you probably want to contact me before too much time goes by! 

Also, keep an eye on the blog. More Once Upon a Time pieces coming up, plus some nifty new things like I’ve never done before!

Reposting to make sure everyone gets the timeline update. :)

A Love Letter to the Costumes of Padme Amidala

Since her dresses are partially responsible for sparking my interest in costume design…

I made these. 

Pocket Hoops and Stays to go under a Robe a la Francaise for Madame de Pompadour from Doctor Who.

Now to tackle the dress.

I am very impressed by this! Did you use a pattern or draft it yourself?
