Clara’s Cold War Dress- Second Version Part 1
A few years ago, I made my own version of Clara Oswald’s dress in the Doctor Who episode, Cold War. While I made it, I hated how it was turning out and, after completing it, I hated the way it looked even more. I always wanted to remake it, but it wasn’t until 2016 I was able to do it. Because I made and finished the dress in 2016, I don’t remember a lot about the dress itself or how I constructed it, but I wanted to talk about it before it becomes a costume that gets lost in my closet and is forgotten before I can talk about it…

Clara Oswald’s Robots of Sherwood Dress- Is it Red or Orange?
Recently I received a question about the color of the Clara Oswald’s Robots of Sherwood dress I made a few months ago. You can read more about the dress I made here. In the post, I referred to the color of the dress as “orange” but in the photos I took, the dress has more of a red color than orange. The difference in color made me wonder, what is a good way of describing the color? Is it really a red or an orange? After looking through the notes I made about the dress, it is not just a red or an orange, but a combination of both.

Clara Oswald’s Robots of Sherwood Dress- The Work in Progress Post
As with the past few years, I’ve been working on a complex dress to wear to the 2015 Arizona Renaissance Festival. This year is another Doctor Who dress: Clara Oswald’s Robots of Sherwood dress. Despite making progress on the dress in October, progress was slowed down due to all the hand sewing I needed to do on the dress. It’s been frustrating, but as of this post I’m almost done with my dress. I’ve been making posts on my Tumblr about the progress I made on the dress, but I felt sad I never mentioned the dress or the progress I’ve made on it here on my main, formal blog.…

2014 Costume and Sewing Round Up
Even though I always wanted make a costume and sewing round up post, I never made one before. I decided this year to change it! I also decided to do a round up post for my art and photography, but those are coming soon. This year I didn’t get the chance to wear many of the costumes I made. Usually what happened is whenever the event I was going to dress up for came, I got sick (Arizona Renaissance Festival) or I got hurt and didn’t feel like dressing up. (Phoenix Comicon) Fortunately, some of the costumes looked like regular clothes so I was able to wear pieces of them…

Clara Oswald Painting
A few months ago I went through some of my old Doctor Who fan art when I realized I didn’t have a Clara Oswald fan art! Sure, I made fabric designs for her clothes, but I didn’t paint Jean Coleman as Clara Oswald. Back in June I began to work on the painting, but after computer problems, distractions, and outright forgetting about the painting left the painting unfinished until yesterday. Here’s what it looks like… This painting was done as an experiment for different tools, shading, ect. for my digital paintings. I already knew how to use the shading and such with traditional art, but I don’t think I’m very…

Clara Oswald’s Cold War Dress
In continuation of my previous post about the costumes I planned on wearing to the 2014 Phoenix Comicon, here’s one I was planning on wearing on Friday night of the convention! I was planning on going to the Party Like a Time Lord dance but I ended up skipping the dance to get a photo with John Barrowman. (Not a bad trade if you ask me!) If I had gone, and wore a costume, I was going to be Clara Oswald from Cold War. In the episode she wore a light blue party dress with silver sparkle heels, perfect for a dance at a convention! Or a dance period. So,…
