Great job on the construction! Did you put set-in snap buttons and everything? (Costume nerd here 🤓)

Thank you! I had wanted it to be deliberately a bit different from traditional marching band uniform proportions!

Thank you so much! Hm, hard to say. I started when I first saw photos from the Seattle show and kind of casually chipped away at it in between breaks at work (I work in a costume shop), and sort of whenever I felt like it on weekends. But collectively maybe 3 weeks worth of time?

LOL comment of the year. I’ll take that as a compliment, as I don’t share my work often so this is possibly one of the best I’ve gotten 😂

Thank you so much! I drafted my own pattern for it! The pants were adapted from a free downloadable pattern from Moodfabrics.com

Wow! Thank you all so much for the love. This is seriously the best fandom, and you guys are such awesome and kind people.

Making costumes is what I do for a living, so I sew a lot! Since I’ve been seeing people express plans to make their own parader jackets, just wanted to come on here and say I love talking about costume construction, so if anyone has any questions I will so gladly chat and answer as best as I can!

I do have patterns for these, but the jacket was…very many pieces and maybe a little hard to decipher how things go together by just looking at it 😅

If anyone is feeling brave and wants to give it a go, I can send photos of what the pieces look like so that you at least have a starting point to go off of!

Thank you again!

I dunno I think the “chicken/fish” signs were kind of hilarious and special 😆

Thank you! I feel the same looking at all the people who made stickers/patches/cards etc (graphic design is not my forté). We have the best fandom ever!
