Patchwork Pirate

Pin Up Rogue

Series: Uncanny X-men
Variant: Pin Up
Date: 2013
Made For: DragonCon 2013
Status: Inactive – I still have it.
Also Worn: N/A

Updates: Thanks to Megan, I was finally able to settle on a hair situation, and I think it turned out lovely!

About the Costume: I made this for a Pin Up Social at DragonCon 2013. I found straight white bangs and swapped them out for the ones I had sewn into my original Rogue wig. I went for more of a Bettie Page hairstyle. The gloves are from my Rogue costume. The dress is a modified soda shop dress from Modcloth. Modified meaning shortened significantly. I made the belt, added the petticoat and shoes. The flower was made by my friend Megan. <3

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.
