So I want to cosplay as Miharu Ogawa from the comic
Red String. I'm doing Miharu's school uniform, which is a light green blazer, dark green skirt, white collared shirt and dark green tie (There's a lovely shot of it
here. I have all the material (which is amazing since normally I'm so picky I wait and never seem to have what I need when I need it).
Today I got almost all of the blazer completely cut out! Yay! Also, I was using a rotary cutter instead of scissors. It'll take some getting used to but it seems like the rotary cutter may be very good for getting a smooth (hopefully precise) line. My only problem is that it seems to be really easy to veer off the cutting line, although I think part of that is due to having to add 1/2" of seam allowance. I was kind of confused since the pieces were all marked "Seam allowance included". I'm going to make a post on the forums to ask about that. Anywho, that went relatively painlessly...which makes me a bit worried! More after next Thurs/Tues!
