"...And Sewing Is Half the Battle!"

I was so busy at that I didn't have time to post during the con (presenting panels Friday, judging Saturday daytime, MCing the Masquerade Saturday night, and Masq feedback Sunday), so please enjoy this placeholder photo of my 9-foot-tall heirloom climbing rose, which was in full bloom when I got home. (I planted this bush from cuttings of an elder rose god that was at my last house, and which might be 80+ years old. My yard smells amazing.)

Anyway, ACEN! Despite being isolated in small rooms for most of the con, I did have the chance to reconnect with a lot of returning cosplayers and Masq staff whom I hadn't seen in a long time! It was great to see all of you! We had a great turnout for the Masquerade, and there were so many amazing cosplayers. Congrats to all of you for putting on a fantastic show!

I didn't get any photos of my Island Lobster Link apart from a dark mirror selfie, so I may have to trot that out again at another event. Hopefully I'll be walking by then. 😅

There's still time to join us for Swashbuckler Weekend at the ! It's an Errol Flynn/Olivia deHavilland double header with The Adventures of Robin Hood tonight and Captain Blood tomorrow. ASIHTB are the title sponsors!
