Updates: I have finally remade the shirt. I found a similar fabric to the old one, so now it’s good to go. I now use this with my regular GB, because DANG it’s hot in Houston and sleeves are a dumb idea down there.

About the Costume: I am not the first person to make this costume! I was inspired by the girl who did it at Dragon*Con 2012. (Found her! Check her out here!) The coveralls are, of course, a CWP-P27 flight suit in tan that I cut the sleeves off of. The original shirt was made from Monster Melt Grey fabric from Jo-Ann. I sewed my GB patch to the right sleeve. The nametag is handmade and embroidered with floss to resemble the “Kaylee’s Room” sign in Firefly. Instead of a teddy bear, I hand-embroidered a Stay-Puft marshmallow man patch. Originally, I wore my Doc Martens with this costume and stuffed the flight suit into them. Now I wear my jump boots. The belt is a white pistol belt dyed grey. I also have accessories such as gloves, a PKE meter, a radio, belt clips, etc. The pack in the first photos below was borrowed from my friend Tuba.

Whether it’s Star Wars, Marvel, Doctor Who, historical fashion, bag making, or the occasional quilting project, I love exploring the intersection of creativity, craftsmanship, and nerd culture.

Pull up a chair, grab a cup of tea, and join me as I share works in progress, finished projects, lessons learned, and the occasional sewing mishap along the way.
